It would seem that the bargain as it turned out was mostly a lot of good luck (congratulations!): just need new batteries and tighten screws. Most people must've been scared away by the original description, judging by the low bids. I once bid on a pentax 135/2.5 where the photo was that of the SMC K135/2.5 but turned out to be a Tukumar non-SMC made in Taiwan. The guy said in the description he didn't remember which one it was and wished bidders luck if it turned out to be a SMC. I bit (about $70.) Turned out unlucky. Tonghang.
