Hi Stefan.
Insured postage to the Netherlands would be a bit more, I have allowed £5 for UK postage so it would be whatever it costs over that to send insured.
Also if its from outside the UK I would want Paypal payment made as a gift so I do not incur charges (unless your friend can do UK to UK bank transfer).

Thanks to Chris at SRS I had my Pentax DA* 60-250mm delivered this morning so the 55-300mm is now going spare. Excellent lens with very good IQ for the price. Just the lens with front and rear caps. £155 incl postage.

I dont think there is such thing as a auto focus mount for the Adaptall 2 lenses. There are PK/A, PK (also labelled PK/M) and screw mounts from what I can remember.

It will work on AF with all standard AF lenses.(I presume)
I really wouldn't recommend a 2x teleconveter though, 1.4x/1.5x or the Pentax 1.7x will give much better IQ

Hi Jason i got something similar last week in a job lot with a pentax programmA / 3 lenses reversing ring / tmount and various other bits and bobs for £20.
So probably isn't a good deal at the price but i was very lucky.

Yes but you forget Ebay and Paypal fees plus the most important fact which is 90% of people that buy from there are total nutters and will pay almost anything not to be beaten in an auction. Mike-P I'he seen sold his 50 1.7 for about 130£ with shipping.

I can confirm that the DA*60-250 works fine with the Tamron 1.4x Pz-AF TC which is now not available, they also made a 2x Pz-AF TC as well.
