With respect to the Soligor 105mm I am open to offers, so feel free to try a cheeky one if you are interested, I may just accept it. I’m only interested in covering my original purchase cost and don’t forget it includes RMSD.
Cheers
Chris

I have responded to all the messages in order of receipt.
Pentax Q OVF, extension tubes, reversing ring and A 50 all sold pending payment.
Slight change to the prices, I will include RMSD in the cost of each item.
1. Q adapter now £90.
3. Soligor 105mm now £90 or best offer.
For those who aren’t already aware, if you don’t have a tripod foot for the Q adapter the iShoot RT-1 fits according to posts on Pentax Forums and a review or two on Amazon, price is normally around £25.
Cheers
Chris

As promised links to pictures.

1. Pentax Q Adapter in excellent condition £100 ono. link
Box is a little tatty but adapter is perfect. I have taken less than 100 pictures with this and I suspect the previous owner took a similar number as the Q it came with had less than 500 on the shutter count.
2. Pentax Q OVF in excellent condition £50 ono. link
Just not using it, I rely on the LCD and have had few problems as I normally wear a hat (to protect my rapidly balding bonce and also keep the sun from creating reflections on my specs) which acts as a useful, hands free sunshade 99% of the time,
3. Soligor 105mm in excellent/mint condition £100 ono. link
This was described to me as Mint by the original seller and I have no reason to disagree other than one man’s mint may be another’s excellent. Difficult to value but this is in massively better condition than all the others listed on eBay at the current time, so I am open to offers. Glass is spotless as are the aperture blades. Has a Pentax K T-mount fitted. On Pentax Forums there are two reviews and a comparison to a Takumar 105mm which is well worth reading - this is a very good lens indeed. Shame to sell it really but I am just not using it.
4. 49mm Reversing Ring £20 ono.link
Forgot I had this tucked away. I tried macro photography a while ago but never got to grips with it, just not my cup of tea.
5. PKA Extension Tubes very good/excellent condition £5 ono. link
As per the reversing ring, a hangover from my abortive attempt at macro photography.
6. Pentax-A 50mm f1.7 in excellent condition £15 ono. link
Another lens in excellent bordering mint condition. Spotless glass and aperture blades, all working perfectly but it just doesn’t get used.
Offers considered for any or all of it and more than happy to answer questions or provide more/better pictures.
Cheers
Chris

Prices are negotiable and will be plus RMSD or postal service of your choice. Collection is an option from East Dorset.
Pictures of all (or links to them) will be added later today, after I have taken some 🙂.
None of these will be advertised on eBay as their charges are now extortionate 😖 but I may pop them onto Facebook or Gumtree next week if they don’t sell here.
1. Genuine Pentax Q Adapter for K Mount Lenses, boxed. £100 ono.
Box is a little tatty but the adapter is in good condition and had little use in my possession (

Pentax A 50mm f1.7 reduced now to £20 incl. RMSD.
Sigma 135-400mm now with its new owner.
Pentax Q adapter for K lenses withdrawn temporarily (messed around by local buyer ) while I decide whether to sell my Q kit in its entirety, just the adapter or keep all of it.

I bought this when I still used manual focus lenses but, as I sold all of them shortly after buying this, I hardly used it and proceeded to totally forget about it.
It is boxed with it's original pouch and is as I bought it, hardly used and in excellent condition.
It obviously fits film SLR cameras for those who still use them but also fits DSLR cameras as well, as pictured on my K-5.
The only thing missing is the paper instruction sheet.
Having looked on ebay there are a couple of examples of the previous version magnifier advertised for about £20-£25 plus delivery and one like this for £20 plus delivery. The rest are international sellers and are all over £40. So I think £15 plus RMSD for this is a fair price but I am still open to sensible offers as it is pointless sitting in my "toy box".

I will put it up on ebay next week if there are no takers on the forum.

I do hope that everyone is happy with their purchases.
Soligor 105mm still available, to encourage sale as it is sitting around gathering dust I have now dropped the price to £55 including RMSD.
If you are interested but outside of the UK drop me a pm and I will find out about postage and payment options.
Cheers
Chris
