This one on *Bay is about the cosmetic equivalent of the one I got from
seller Rextex with broken viewfinder for $202.50, WITH nice "Made in Japan"
50/1.8. Add $64 for viewfinder replacement (he reimbursed me), and you're
still waaaaay under $425.
About the highest prices I've seen them go for is around $275, from dealers.
But I wouldn't be surprised if the "LNIB" description gets somebody
excited.... if they'll just read the entire description, they'll see it
really isn't LNIB, and has sat, unused, for YEARS. Would be a good candidate
for CLA right away. Add another $150 - $175 to the $425... and still no
lens.
