Pentax 31mm - Advice needed!

Hello everybody!

Can anybody give advice on this?

What about the cheaper 31mm for sale from Canada and Honk Kong?

Cheers,

I've only ever bought one lens new from abroad, that was the 77m Ltd from Canada and I had no problems. I did have to pay about £50 duty when it arrived though so you have to add that on.

I've never bought anything expensive from Hong Kong but I don't know why it would be any worse than buying from any other country.

It's alway a gamble on Ebay no matter where the item is from so it's up to you what you do.

Bought my 31mm from Canada, £409 with postage, £55ish duty, took just under a week, no problems. Also bought a lens from Japan took 3 days, no duty, no problems.

I would suggest putting in an offer at about the import prices, then drive down to pick it up, at least if it is not as described, you don't have the hassle of trying to get your money back.
