Price of £120 including RMSD was agreed yesterday with organicimagery.
I havent heard from him though so if i dont hear from him tonight i will pm all the other interested parties.
If you are willing to match £120 Cloudhunter i will add you to the list.

Chris the 70-300mm is a very cheap budget lens so do not expect anything great from it.
I think SRS do the 55-300mm Pentax @ £200 (maybe a bit more than your budget) but it knocks spots off the Sigma Non Apo.
The sigma APO is a lot better but still not as good as the Pentax.

And seriously give SRS a call, you wont find a better bunch of people to deal with.

Well worth the money.
Comparable Nikon / Canon ones are nearly £300 and imo not as sharp.
The only "True" bargain you will get in photography nowdays.

Does SRS not have any in stock?

so craig will you be moving to another dslr other than pentax now,
Ive not decided my next steps m8.
I really did like the K20D and the CS from SRS.
I just feel gutted with the luck i was having.
Its funny though as someone pointed out i could have got the train to SRS and tried the stuff out and went away happy for just over £30.
Might be a thought although Chris and the other guys would probably Shoot me on sight.

Care to enlighten us?
Been offered a full refund on everything with the exception of the 50mm as there was no issues with this lens.
Craig, some of us have spent a long time helping you with this issue, why be so economical with information now?

If you've had a problem and got it successfully resolved, could you give something back to the forum and explain more fully please?[/quote]I will be Mannesty but im still waiting on Sigma and Pentax getting back to me with some questions i asked.
Sigma have been great, called me first thing this morning and answered some of the questions but still a few more im looking for answers to.
Pentax so far have failed to respond.
This might be due to them outsourcing repairs and such now so i wont hold my breath waiting for them to reply.
I have sent you a PM in the meantime.
