I'm new to the board and thought I may help. I thought I saw one at Advance
Camera in Portland, Oregon but after talking with them found out it was an SMC
A 28-135 for $364 on consighnment. He thought it may go for less since it had
been there for a couple of months. They are on the web at advancecamera.com and
their phone is (503) 292-6996. They are a friendly enough staff should you
call, and are the Pentax service center for the Northwest U.S.
