I found a nikon 80-200 push pull 2.8 for sale. Is there anything special I should be looking for when I get my hands on it? and is 500 a normal price for this item? Just some pointers would be helpful. Thanks guys.

You may be able to talk him down in price a little, usually seen them sell for between $4 and $5.
Good quality lens if you like push pull, but the 2 ring ones are better and faster AF.
It's not what you look at that matters: Its what you see!

You should be able to find a used Sigma 150 2.8 for about $500, if you hunt very carefully, but anyways yeah that's my advice in the telephoto "bargain" department... BTW for the record, I say this as both a nature / macro photographer, and also a low-light wedding / portrait photographer. Personally, I recently sold my Sigma 150 2.8 for $350 (it was REALLY beat up, but still worked flawlessly) ...and I'm currently saving up for the new OS (stabilized) version of the same lens.
Take care,
