To clarify,
I will happily consider sending this item out to EU countries or the UK only. Inquiries regarding whether this item can be posted to non-EU countries has resulted in a learning curve for me in terms of import duties, etc. I have discovered that with import fees, Paypal fees and costlier postage that it is not worth my while to sell this item to non- EU countries. Sorry for any inconvenience caused!!
The item is presently still for sale and open to offers.

If I may ask.... what happened to the two buyers?
You Certainly may. The first was in Spain and had bad experiences with online purchases and was not willing to take the risk of paying in full upfront on trust alone, of which I can understand but cannot accommodate. The second made an offer I declined and I am waiting in response. As I was not initially intending to ship to the EU I cannot accept returns but have offered both these potential buyers and any others any images / info / video (if necessary) to facilitate the sale or their piece of mind. This stands and I stand by the condition of this item, if I didn't need to make further lens purchases for my recent jump into Full Frame I wouldn't be selling, also my wife is holding my wallet to ransom after said purchase of Full Frame camera. I have also discovered the original instruction booklet and have included in the sale. Please feel free to ask any questions or request any info you need as at present this lens is still for sale and I'm still open to offers.

Thanks Algi, there's so much info out there regarding this fab lens and TBH it is begrudgingly that I'm selling it but I don't do enough macro and my eyes just aren't built for manual focus. After recent purchases I thought I better stop stressing my marriage and sell some kit on I bought it in a bag full of manual focus Pentax gear about a year or so ago and this little gem was tucked away in a lens pocket. Made me feel like Charlie and his golden ticket, lol!

This is a classic manual focus macro and one of the sharpest lenses ever made. More info here link
Two owners with me being one of them, I have an original receipt somewhere and instruction booklet. Comes with the original 1:1 extender in K mount but no hood or cases. The lens and extender are in excellent condition with no marks to the front or rear elements of both items. Cosmetically in great condition considering this is a 20yr old lens. Iris is snappy with no signs of oil on the blades and fungus free. I've used this item on my K5 but i'm reluctantly selling to fund new lens purchases. Images are of the item being sold. Looking for £400 with free postage in the uk or collection and open to offers.

That seller has already sold one for £639 BIN/Offer link

The lens he has on now been relisted. He had it on on Ebay previously for 28 days at his present price and it didn't sell, not even an offer. Personally I think he will still have it in another 28 days unless he lowers his asking price.

The one that went at £639 (or what ever the best offer was) was imo a total fluke, one of those things that happens on Ebay now and then.

Personally I would say in the region of £350.
Sounds like a more resonable sort of affair. Maybe sell the extender separately.
@Algi I wouldn't pay that much for a converted. Just buy an adapter rather than hard convert.
