resale price?

Can anyone please give me an idea as to what one would expect to pay for the following two lenses:

PENTAX SMC-FA 28-200mm 3.8-5.6

PENTAX SMC-F FISH-EYE 17-28mm 3.5-4.5

thanks, Lilly

Just me, but in mint condition I would think £40 each. Are you looking to buy or sell?

[EDIT] If I'd looked at your signature I could have worked it out!

Looking at recent sales on eBay the FA 28-200 seems to fetch around £75, the F17-28 is much rarer and I could only find one example from the last three months - sold for £218 by a dealer in Switzerland.

I'll give you £40 each for them though...

I bought a very good condition (without box) F17-28 from London Camera Exchange last year for £99. I used it for a bit, liked the fisheye effect and decided to sell it and buy a 10-17. I got about £150 on ebay for the 17-28, there was loads of interest in it.

I may be wrong but think a lot of interest was from full frame Canon/Nikon users that were hoping to use it with some sort of adapter and get a full frame zoom fisheye which I don't think the other manufactures make.

Thats promising then, thank you guys, I did try and hunt for the 17-28 and got nowhere.
As you say it is rare which I am not surprised about as my hubby had a fit of weakness years ago and got it for my Z1 and it was over £450 then.

Yes, I am looking to sell both as I do need funds for a 21mm, but wanted to test the water if I cd get a decent price for them, didnt want to give them away (£40! :shock, not that that desparate yet!

I suppose I could give Chris a call, to see what I would get part exchange, though would I get more for private?

The 28-200mm may not fetch mega-bucks but the 17-28mm is more hopeful because of its rarity.

I do quite a bit of buying and selling on eBay, and I rarely see the 17-28mm.

OK. I know nothing. I admit it.
