Well, it's not as if the VS1 28/1.9 is exactly rare, either - I think it might be the most common of the "original" (1970's) line of VS1 lenses on eBay (which is ~not~ to say that it's not good, but just to say that it's not a "once-in-a-lifetime find" on eBay). On the other hand, of all my "original" VS1 lenses, the 28/1.9 is probably the least used - I'm more likely to grab a Pentax 28/2 instead. (Some of the VS1 lenses probably get used a lot by many of us simply because they are often quite good, and also often a good buy nowadays, but others get used a lot because they are ~unlike~ a lot of other lenses.)
