Why not? Heard great things about it

You guys are right... I need to shove them on ebay and dont look back

And I doubt its mint and boxed

wow,£90... I saw one £93 mint, boxed, shipped...

Yeah... fraud stopping measures... Like not allowing a student an account without £5000. You know who has £5000 to open an account? Ppl looking to launder money.

Sorry for the rant, but these kind of measures (and some antiterror ones) just get on my nerves.

Anyway, a contract mobile should work just fine since oyu do go through a credit check and whatnot.

I saw one going for £20 before I even has the K10D, so at the time I decided I'd get one, just bellow that... Bit of a dream really, my "database" (guess where the idea came from) says about the same price as yours.

I want to sell those bits and pieces or poorer lenses on ebay, but I tried to post an item and I need to have a landline, whcih i dont have... Just a mobile.

I could use my office's landline to get the code. But will I get regular calls from ebay? Do I have to have the landline permanently.
I understand the measure, but my contract mobile should work just as well, but doesn't

Any ideas?

In a great exercise of restraint and because I dunno if its worth to tie up more money... I plead you get this:

Great kit.
The guy wont take paypal or bank transfer, so you are advised. I suppose he would take western union, but that plus postage brings the cost to an uncomfortable amount for me ...

Good luck.

The Sigma 18-125mm does exist for Pentax.

I dont have the 18-250mm, I wish...

"On a side note, I'm no longer sure I really need the 18-250mm, but I'd like a flexible lens." Means I don't think I'll get one...

Thinking about it... If I knew Pentax was bringing FF soon, the 28-105mm F2.8 would be nice, but its not likely, plus I'm not very interested in FF, give me an even better noise performing APS-C and I'll be much happier.

Lately I've buying, playing around and selling some lenses.

I've realized I'm not much closer to having the lenses I really need.

Some time ago I thought about what lenses I should get that really fitted my photography plus what I'd like to get to have fun with.
This included:
17-70 + 55-300mm
18-250mm
This would cover almost all my photographic subjects. Then fast 50mm 100/135mm for portraits would cool for portraits and DOF play. A fish-eye and a macro for fun.

Upon examination I would change very little in this plan, but I've gotten only the "extras" so far (no fish-eye yet). And I'm not any close of getting the lenses I mentioned.

I've been getting lenses on good deals, and its been fun, but no focus...
Currently I have 3 70-210mm, 1 100-300mm, 1 70-300mm (half working tammy), 1 28-105mm, 1 24mm, 1 200mm. They are fine lenses for the most part, but not essential...
Plus I have another 70-210mm and Viv 28-90mm (for the MX, hope its as good as ppl say).
I need to sell some of these, but I also need to not buy more

How do I focus?

On a side note, I'm no longer sure I really need the 18-250mm, but I'd like a flexible lens. For the short range a Sigma 17-70mm seems cool and a bit longer and it'd be close to being pretty flexible. The 28-105mm seems fine, but the bokeh isn't great, nothing compared to the Tammy 105mm Adaptall F2.5.
There is also a 18-125mm which isn't that great in IQ as the 17-70mm, but certainly cheaper and better range.
Anyone has experience with this lens? I'm inclined to getting it if I get a good deal (forgetting the 18-250mm).
