Bargain price for this, the only Pentax lens with such a focal range!

Have sadly decided to let this lens go. Since moving to a lighter Fuji system (for health reasons) it hasn't seen any use, and I already have a 60-250, so a considerable overlap.
I purchased this lens new in August 2011 (am the only owner) and it is like new in every respect.

It is boxed, with all original contents & paperwork. Has the original caps, hood, and soft pouch. No marks or signs of use, nor has it had any SDM issues.

Am asking £495 incl postage within the UK.

There is no case or hood. The lens comes with just the two caps.

The soft effect varies according the the aperture set, so at f2.8 very soft, with a strong glow, increasingly sharp as the lens is stopped down. I found that f4 or so gives quite a well balanced look.

This is getting dangerous! - Its a special lens, and I can't see anything in PP could approach the versatility of the soft effect.

Here are a few examples:
