Brilliant set of tubes for A series lenses.
There is no apparent wear on the chromed bits and no-one has done the necessary damage to the blackened side so I can only assume these are mint and unused? I have two sets of these and I find them exceptionally useful - but you do need to scrape off a bit of the anodizing next to each of the leftmost pins (as seen above) otherwise the electrical circuit cannot complete and they won't work.

Thanks for pointing out the need to remove a little paint David, what throws me is the fact that the Aperture value registers in the camera without doing this!Brilliant set of tubes for A series lenses.

Condition is not quite mint, there are some signs of wear but not many. They are such a useful accessory, I use tubes frequently (often with lenses such as the A*85/1.4) just to decrease the minimum focus distance allowing for images that the lens alone couldn't make
P.S. If I get some spare time at the weekend I might do the modification to these - then I can double the price only kidding
