The red draws the eye too much, away from the subject. Tone the red down to a darker brown or grey and the colour wins hands down.

There's a bit about it here which you should see:
https://www.pentaxuser.com/forum/topic/classified-advertisments-guidlines-11679
Have a look through the classified section to see if there is anything similar listed, also have a look on fleabay to see if anything similar has been sold and find out what it went for. If you pitch it too high you can always reduce the price. I'm sure though you already have some idea how much you are looking for.

You realise you can use your older Pentax lenses on the current DSLR's? That is provided you haven't disposed of them! You should be able to pick up an early one quite reasonably (say a K100D, K200D, K-x etc.) and you wouldn't be disappointed. Get a K-5 and you'll be thrilled!

Good luck, hope you get it sorted then.

If it has rust in it (as it appears) it will never truly go away. A rebuild with new parts might be successful, but at what cost!?
I note that the seller is shown as a 'business seller' so you have the right of return under the distance selling regulations if you are not happy with the lens.
The optics don't look clean either so it would appear to have been misdescribed in any event. If it were me I'd return it and source another one.

PS Act fast as there is a time limit to return items under the distance selling regs. See

Looks like it has been dropped in the sea and not washed out and dried afterwards.
Hope it truly was a bargain. Was it honestly described?

What camera are you using?
What software are you using to convert your raw files?
Have you tried 'developing' your RAW files in the camera to jpegs to see if the issue persists?
