Re: For Sale Friday: lots of gear
Hi! It turns out that the prices of Pentax gear have taken a plunge. So, here are the asking prices for my gear, based on KEH prices. K-5 + grip + battery + that eye cap - USD 350 Sigma 24-60 - USD 250 Sigma 17-70 - USD 200 FA 50/1.4 + hood - USD 200 Metz 50 AF-1 - USD 100 Ricoh GXR set - USD 250 All prices include EMS insured shipping and PayPal fees.

So, I'm pulling the plug on Pentax to compensate for the losses. Oly EM-1 fully suits my needs. Below is the list of gear that I'd like to sell. I don't intend to make profit but I don't want to be taken advantage of either. * Pentax K-5, with OEM battery grip and extra OEM battery. I am the original owner. Galia (my older) was shooting with it too, but under my supervision. Slightly more than 20k shutter actuations. Comes with box and if you feel like it - original paperwork in Hebrew. It also has OEM viewfinder magnifying eye cap. I may not have camera strap and original eye cap. I will try to find them, but I cannot make promises. * Sigma 24-60/2.8 - fast full frame standard zoom. Comes with hood, original box, pouch and matching Sigma protective filter. * Sigma 17-70/2.8-4.5 - the original, non-SDM version. Everything is fine, but being my workhorse for few years, the crinkle finish has starte to wear off. Otherwise - rather fine lens. * FA 50/1.4 - I bought this one from William Robb. This is rather very fine copy. It was brought fully to spec by Bill and it is a sharp copy too. Comes with OEM lens hood. * Metz 50 AF-1 flash. I am not 100% sure if it has the latest firmware, but it has one that is fully compatible with Pentax K-5. Comes with its native diffuser. I should also have its USB cable somewhere. You might want to look up on the web, whether a firmware upgrade is necessary to use it with K-3 and more modern cameras. Really excellent reliable flash. * Assortment of Pentax lens pouches. If you have any specific one that you're looking for - let me know - I'll see if I have one. * Somehow I appear to have FA 100/3.5 and FA 50/1.7 carton boxes. If you need them for any reason - they're yours. Also one non-Pentax item. I bought a bit more Ricoh GXR gear than I really need. * Camera body, AF 28mm module (18.3/2.5 lens), viewfinder, one extra 3rd party battery. Also lens adapter that turns the lens into 21 mm one. Few points about this set: - I'd like to sell it as a set, not to split it into parts. - Due to known issue with viewfinder data bus, I glued the viewfinder so that it does not flip out. So, it works as regular (D)SLR viewfinder, motionless - The module appears to have caught a piece of hair-like dust on the sensor. It is in the corner, but it is there. - I bough this set originally hoping to take advantage of the wide adapter. However, the adapter is for smaller sensor Ricoh cameras. It is original adapter, but on 28 mm module, the extreme corners are softer that I would like. It may suit you quite well, nonetheless... I don't set prices, again because I'd rather this gear stayed in the PDML family. So, if you feel like it - give me a shout off-list and I am certain, I will not disappoint you in terms of conditions. Please notice, that for obvious reasons, I will not be offering refunds or returns. Please be sure to ask as many/much questions as you'd like - I will answer them to the best of my ability.

Re: For Sale Friday: lots of gear
Larry, I see two potential problems with what you propose: 1. Taxes on entering USA. If this is a big box with all sorts of gear in it - won't your tax people be interested in taxing it? 2. PDML is not 100% American. There're some European PDMLers who could, at least in theory, be interested in some of that gear. Having said that - naturally, if there is interest in more than one item and it comes from USA - I would of course look for trying to arrange combined shipping.
