It a good price. I got mine for $50, in great condition, with just a
small mark on the back element, which went away with a microfiber
cloth.
It's a funny story, related to the "salespeople slamming Pentax"
thread: I was in a photo fair, and the only Pentax thing this guy had
in his table was the M50 1.4. The person in front of me was trying to
sell him a ZX10 with a couple of zooms. The table guy starts slamming
Pentax in a big way, saying that nobody wants them, that they don't
sell, that everybody uses Nikon and Canon, blah blah blah. I listen to
him go on for about five minutes with this, and as the ZX10 guy
leaves, I ask "so, how much do you want for this Pentax lens?"
It probably was the sharpest lens that guy had in his table.
