Don't take this the wrong way, but the Pentax version of this lens is available for £25 new. Even the brand new WR version (improved optics, weather resistant) is available for well under £100 new.
If you can't say something nice about Pentax, you won't say anything at all.
Apparently.

Echoing what robbie_d says and to be honest it is highly unlikely anyone here doesn't have one already.

The reality is a few sellers have been pricing this lens very high, at ridiculous prices.
But trusted authorized sellers sell very much cheaper new.
Check completed listing on ebay to have an idea of price.

As edumad says, completed sales rather than optimistic listings is the best measure.
As a guide I got one of those lenses with a Samsung GX 1L attached to the end of it for £125 off this very forum.
I also sold a Pentax 18-55mm DAL to a user on here for £15 as he wanted a cheap lens to use in poor conditions. That lens wasn't boxed and didn't have a hood though.
Realistically, you might be able to get £30-£40 quid if you're able to find a Samsung user who would rather your lens to a Pentax as it matches their camera.
