Two watchers as well!

I did notice this myself a day or two ago and there are others in a similar vein as well although not quite as excessive as this one.

I'm guessing that HMRC may well have taken an interest...

CHEERS Vic.
Born again biker with lots of Pentax bits. Every day I wake up is a good day. I'm so old I don't even buy green bananas.

Perhaps if you turn up in person they'll give you a couple of quid off!

Is this really in the 'Leads to Deals' section.

Ah right, it's got to be a good buy then. I'll get my BIN in now before someone else nabs it!
He who hesitates... (again, but t maybe not this time!) Makes the 300 2.8 look like I stole it!
Had a much better buy yesterday, the F 17-28mm zoom which also seems quite scarce and a K 135 3.5 (not the M version) from West Yorkshire Cameras in Leeds. I hesitate to use the word rare, we'll reserve that for... this 50-200...
Unusually, one copy of the 135 seemed to be permanently stuck at its smallest aperture.

Hey Stu. I wish it was me selling it. A few extra bob would come in handy.

I'll bet that if "you" "buy it now", then the seller will say "Fine, but please just wait a minute whilst I find one"

OTT "over-pricing" is a well-known seller ploy to disguise the fact that he doesn't actually have something to sell ATM, but wants to keep his "name on the table" - but I'm sure you all already know that

OTOH, maybe someone will bite and buy - must try that tactic someday - could be like winning the Lottery!
K-3 II, K-3 and a K-70 from SRS (having now relegated the K-30 /"K-50" to a backup body), & some Sigma and Pentax lenses (and a lot of old 35mm gear!)
