Well, I bought my 100/2 about 3 years ago, from a collapsed sale at my 
favourite camera shop. They had just had the front element replaced for the 
previous purchaser - but not good enough for him apparently and he returned 
it.

I understand it cost something like $NZ 27; in other words, very little (under 
$20 US).

If you like I can make enquiries.

My 100/2 is certainly sharp, but I find it is a challenging lens to use. 
Shallow 
DOF, and the aperture spring is relatively strong. A great chunk of glass in 
front !!
