Still for sale, been sat in its box unused since last post.
Actually I may even just keep it .. in the bag with the Pentax 16-45mm its quite a lightweight package to carry.
Funny you saying about the 80-320mm price, I was also about to list this:

I have to say, Sockpuppet, that you do illustrate your sale items very well.
Makes a nice change from all those blurred phonecam pic's on Ebay.

I used to do a lot of selling on Ebay (used mobile phones) and quickly learned that the better the presentation the more the item would fetch.
Also the buyer could not say that the item was damaged or not as described due to the detail of the pictures .. which is probably why I have 900+ feedback @ 100%.

Phoenix (Vivitar, Cosina) 100mm F3/5 Macro
Item Description
This is the manual focus lens which is apparently better built than the autofocus, having a metal mount. I bought it off a seller on Ebay USA who advertised it as AF and then found out it wasn't. I have a Tamron 90mm manual focus lens alread so do not need 2. It is absolutely mint condition, boxed with 1:1 matched lens and actually gives excellent results.
Pictures of lens below plus a quick test shot of the macro capabilities I took when first getting the lens.

Is this one valued because it has the SDM contacts in it? it's the reason I bought mine, to see if it worked!
I may actually keep mine as I am waiting for the 60-250mm, it may be quite a good match.
