wanted: 50mm A 1.7

anyone has a good copy including caps (and wouldnt mind the box either).
either in london or happy to pay for shipping.
thinking around the £40 mark (ebay's past 5 years average rate

Hi!

I've one that I could sell for £45 including RMSD. No box, but it's in good condition.

There's a pic of it here:

I have one too but it is in as new, boxed condition and the asking price of £65 delivered reflects this.

lens bought from Cuchulainn. fast delivery, well packed and working perfectly thanks.

Glad you found one, and that an excellent lens is going to get used again

Just wondered how you determined ebay's 5-year average price? When I look at 'completed listings', it only shows the last few weeks' worth. :

I am keeping a database of every single pentax lens that sells on ebay, I spend about 3 hours a week updating the spreadsheet...
haha no, just kidding (although surely someone does it!), been willing to buy one of these for about 4-5 years, they seem to always sell between £35-45 including shipping. that's for a lens in good condition, price varies a bit based on description etc...

I just had a quick look , the average price for the last 5 that sold was £53.80 plus shipping. Also one with fungus went for £22.

just looked at my ebay, these are all the A 1.7 since Jan 10th till Feb 2nd, price is including of shipping:

- 37.75 (Feb 2nd)
- 37.50
- 39.30
- 42.99 (buy it now)
- 43.50
- 44.27
- 35.75 (Jan 10th)

I do not "watch" the lenses when they have fungus or listed as poor condition, but clearly the range is £35-45 including shipping

We will have to agree to disagree I think. I've just looked again and noted that 1 had not sold at its BIN price. The last 5 with shipping averaged £52.67 inc shipping.
2/2 44 + 2.99
3/2 48 + 3.50
3/2 42 + 3.50
3/2 52.01 + 3.95
3/2 58.50 + 4.95

I believe you, looks like the price has gone up SINCE I received mine, so I am happy
