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.

That is not right for me, I'm using Pentax because of the cheap and very
good second hand market. 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
