Yes! There's plenty of crap lenses that have been popular sellers including:

Nikon's infamous dog the 43-86mm zoom
Sigma's infamous old series 24-120mm
Sigma's horrible early 80-200 MF lenses
Canon's 20/3.5 macro lens (awful awful awful)
Minolta's 100-300 consumer zoom (woeful)
Sigma's 400/5.6 AF lens (soft plus)

want me to continue?
