Hi Boz, I'm sad to hear your decision but I'm glad that you will stay at the PDML and that you will keep the wonderful the K-mount page.

I have bought in Germany in the last year the following exellent stuff second hand (ebay, dealers, newspaper) . Near all lenses were in perfect condition with orginal catonage. FA* 2/24 200 Euro FA* 1.4/85 400 Euro FA* 2.8/80-200 550 Euro (in the last three month there were three for ca. 1000 Euro on Ebay) FA* 4.5/300 450 Euro FA 1.9/43 300 Euro (there is every month for 300 Euro one in Ebay) FA 1.8/77 500 Euro FA 2/35 160 Euro (a very good lens) F 17-28 Fisheye zoom 300 Euro FA 3.5-4.5 24-85 350 Euro FA 2.8/100 300 Euro I find it very easy to buy very good Pentax stuff second hand at a low price, as you can see from the above list (that is not all), but now I have to stop it, otherwise I'm in trouble with my wife. regards R�diger
