New year clearout

As discussed in a recent thread, I have made an LBA-related New year's resolution to divest myself of the large portion of my lens collection that I don't use as much as I should:

I've completed a preliminary sort-through and have a list of kit I'm planning to get rid of. As suggested on the thread, I though I'd put up a list here to see if anyone on the forum would be be interested before I begin listing it on eBay.

The kit is listed below, with indicative prices (including UK recorded delivery or special delivery for the higher value items). At this stage I haven't written detailed descriptions or photographed it all yet, but if you let me know what you're interested in, I'll post/e-mail pictures and a more detailed description. It seems more sensible to do it that way than spend ages writing an epic forum post only to find that nobody's interested!

I'd be happy to send outside the UK via Royal Mail Airsure where available (I've lost about 20% of the small number of items I've ever sent overseas using the standard airmail service) and would consider sensible offers (especially for multiple items).

I've also got some M42 lenses (CZJ 135 Sonnar MC and Tessar 50/2.8, Chinon 28/2.8 and Pentacon 29/2.8 and 50/1. if they are of any interest, but I thought it might be pushing the 'Pentax related' guidelines a bit far.

Im interested Sigma 70-300 4-5.6 APO macro (1:2) PK/A MF can you send details or pics or both ?

No problem - I'll put up pics and a more detailed description for the Sigma 70-300 this evening.
