EDIT: All items that are still available will be in UK from Saturday 8th November and will be sold via ebay unless sold to forum members.

I have the following equipment for sale. All items are in used and excellent condition unless stated otherwise.

Prices exclude post & packing which will be charged at cost on a per package basis. Multiple items can be combined into one package for posting.

Please note:- All of these items are currently with me in Spain. I will return for a short trip to UK with any sold items in November. None of these items will ship before 10th November 2008.

Method of payment in order of preference is bank transfer, cheque, Paypal.

And before anybody asks, I'm not switching brands. I'm just allowing others to enjoy using some gear I no longer use having upgraded my glass and flash guns over the years.

Images of these items can be seen here.

You can checkout my eBay feedback, but I've not used it much in the last couple of years. Same user name as here.

AF240FT - NO LONGER AVAILABLE I decided to keep them.
SMC Pentax-FA 28-105mm 1:4-5.6 - NO LONGER AVAILABLE.
SMC Pentax-FA 80-320mm 1:4.5-5.6 - SOLD (includes collapsible rubber hood) - Original front and rear caps.

Flash guns:- (stands shown in images are not included).

AF160 - £15 - (2 available)

Prime Lens:-

SMC Pentax-A 135mm 1:2.8 - £95.00 - Original front cap, third party hard rear cap, built-in hood. This is a very clean example having no evidence of dust, fungus, or scratches to the glass. The body shows few signs of use and has been very well cared for.

Teleconverter:-

Takumar-A 2X Teleconverter - £35.00 - Original hard front cap (I think), third party hard rear cap, Glass is in mint condition, body shows minimal signs of use. I have owned this TC from new, bought in 1984.

Zoom Lenses:-

SMC Pentax-A 35-70mm 1:4 Macro - £65.00 - Original front cap, third party hard rear cap. This is the constant aperture companion lens to the 70-210 lens below. This lens has seen much more use than any of my other lenses and is still in fine condition.
SMC Pentax-A 70-210mm 1:4 Macro - £115.00 - Original caps. This is the constant aperture companion lens to the 35-70 lens above. This lens is in as new condition except for slight wearing to the gold QC label. It's a stunning performer and includes its original hard case which is also in exceptionally fine condition.
Pentax-F 28-80mm 1:3.5-4.5 - £10.00 - Original front cap, Tokina hard rear cap. This makes an ideal lens for use in situations where you would prefer not to subject your better lenses to possible damage.
SMC Pentax-F 35-135mm 1:3.5-4.5 Macro - £85.00 - Original front cap, Hoya hard rear cap.

SMC Pentax-FA 28-200mm 1:3.8-5.6 IF&AL - £115.00 - Original caps and petal bayonet hood. This is a superb walkabout lens on a film body, a useful 42-300mm equivalent on a dSLR. The bayonet hood shows some signs of wear. It's previous owner kept it with his MZ-S in a ER case which has caused the wear to the hood.

I bought another AF540FGZ. I plan to use two of them, with cables, so that I can put decent diffusers on them. I find the direct flash from the AF240FT's a bit harsh and the Sto-Fen diffusers don't stay on very well. I'm only worried that the whole thing will be too heavy.

The tripod screw on the twin flash bracket I have is not really long enough, it won't even screw into the base of my bellows because the heli-coil in the bellows is slightly recessed.

I've looked through your gallery and it all seems like good stuff, but unfortunately they're not things I'm really after. Sorry!

Reckon you'd clean up over on eBay though...
