Time for you to start collecting again
I've still got a modest collection of lenses that I seriously enjoy using. Aiming to whittle it down a little more but otherwise, looking considerably more manageable!
Having some reasonably guilt-free expendable cash helps, though!

All-in-all, a pretty successful venture!

Very Nice - just shows that one of the cheapest Pentax lenses (they often sell for a pittance) is capable of quality results
Does anyone REALLY need more than a M 28mm f/2.8, M 50mm f/1.7 and M 135mm f/3.5? For sub-£100 (and often a lot less than £100), it's a solid line-up that covers most angles.

The 85 and 200mm arrived - well packed and the description was much more conservative than the actual condition. 😊 thank you

M50m 1:1.7 lenses were gold dust 10 years ago..
...now they're only worth a fraction of the cost back then.
Just saying.
Listening to local radio and it seems west, West Yokshire is having a bad day with the rivers rising fast.
I picked mine up for... minus... something (ish)?. Came in a job-lot with 2x ME Supers, some other filmy bits and bobs and a Kiron 28mm f2 in PKA mount, all for £70. Traded in the ME Supers (and a couple of other lenses/accessories I picked up for small change) for a lens I was after that was on offer at around £280 at the time. Still have the M50/1.7 and Kiron, and the traded lens.

Oh stop. That black one is truly beautiful.
Possibly because my first Pentax was a silver MX...
