Up for sale is my trusty Nikkor 18-200 f/3.5-5.6 VR. It is a very CLEAN one too.

Its an ideal walk-around lens because of the focal length range and its weight. Its very compact as well so great for travel.

Selling because I'm going to pick up a 70-200 f/2.8 and the overlap isn't necessary.

Comes with: box, B+W 72mm UV-Haze filter (retailed for $60), Nikon front and rear caps, Nikon lens hood.

All front and rear elements are mint.

If you've done your research, you'll know that many 18-200's have "zoom creep". My lens has it but once you "lock" it, it won't creep.

$550 net to me.

I did my research for the price, which I think is fair and "market value". Plus, this comes with a high quality UV filter.

I'm guessing it has the vibration reduction from the switch on the side and autofocus as well. Will this work with the D90? Also does the aperture adjust with the camera or is it manually controlled on the lens?

VR is in the title

I use this with a D90 as well. Like any newer Nikkor lens, you can use this lens in any mode on your camera.

That means, full auto, full manual, aperture priority, shutter priority etc.

To directly answer your questions:
Yes, it has vibration reduction.
Yes, it will work with the D90.
Yes, you can adjust aperture/shutter speed with the camera.

how bad is the creep you are experiencing? is it bad to the point where if you angle the lens down it'll extend out a bit or just move by a few mm such as from 135mm to 138mm when pointing down? Also is the vibration reduction the VRI or VRII?

Easy way to tell is the slight differences:
VRI logo is red VRII logo is gold

Pointing the lens itself straight down...

18-24: locked
24-135: zoom creep

This is with the hood, filter and cap on.

This is an awesome lens. Good luck with Sale.

This is the potential of that lens with a D90
