I have bough a few lenses from Japan sellers.
All where in superb condition, exactly as described.
Delivery to Australia was always in 4 days with accurate tracking.
If I buy a secondhand Pentax lens, I first look for Japanese Sellers.

Maybe it was a Queensland driver in a Victorian hire car.

I was walking beside the Melbourne formula 1 racetrack, when I noticed a pair of swans casually crossing the road. the cars stopped and waited patiently until the birds where safely across.
By the way, when the race is on, the 50km/h speed sign does not apply.
The lens was my Pentax F 35-70mm f3.5-4.5
1/1000sec at f8 70mm 400ASA
Safely across
Back in the water with the friends

When looking at the pictures in the gallery, I always wonder why most members do not specify what lens is used.
It would be a big advantage to see, how the different lenses perform.
The Exif does not tell much. It is quite useless to know if a flower or landscape is taken with a speed of 1 sec or 1/1000 sec.
Of course for a speeding car or plane etc it is relevant, but for not much else.
But it would still be useful, what lens was used.

Yes the F-35-70mm is fully auto focus and fit well to all Pentax cameras. Starting from the first K to the K3..

I just bought my first lens on Evilbay.
You bought a lens for an incredible cheap price.
You bought a lens you may not anywhere being able to buy, where it not for Ebay.
But then you knock Ebay. If it is so bad, (evil) why bother?
That is stupid.
