Hi. I just wonder how you always have things to sell? Are you a trader ? and if so what is your company name. Just me being curious and nosey.
CHEERS Vic.

Hi Vic, That Lens is nothing to do with me - just an opportunity for someone if they want to try one of the finest Pentax lenses ever produced at a very good price.
I'm not a Trader - but I was a Collector with an LBA problem owning and using Pentax equipment since the 1970's. At it's peak (2 to 3 years ago) I had over 250 Pentax items and around 70 non-Pentax items, I have sold over half the collection - almost everything has been offered on here first, although many items have sold or traded elsewhere subsequently.
I will still buy lenses/cameras/accessories if I haven't owned them before - it has been part of my mission to own and use as many Pentax lenses as I could find, but as my eyesight gets a little worse I'm finding that the modern fast lenses suit me more.
All the best
John

Insane price, that. Good spot. Someone here should pick up that bargain while it sticks around (undoubtedly briefly).

Pentax LBA is a fun affliction. You haven't lived until you've tried all the best and worst lenses.
All the gear with no idea

Cheers John. I just wondered as you seem to sell a lot. Now I don't have to wonder any more.
As you are from Worcestershire I thought you might be interested in the fact that the Americans use the full Wor Cester Shire name for the sauce. When you hear it in a southern accent it really does sound weird. The furthest south I've been is Little Rock in Arkansas and their accent is strange.
CHEERS Vic.

Sorry John you got it wrong. Photography is just a vehicle to indulge in LBA.... lol....
You enjoy taking pictures though....

I can highly recommend this superb lens - that sort of doubles up as a fast, short portrait lens when used on APS-C
Hope it helps someone
