I think if you wait long enough he might offer it as a BIN for 50 quid as he has been reducing the price at each relist.
I think there is a mint A85/1.4 on ebay at the moment for about $800, although no doubt it will end higher than that as it still has a few days to go. Personally I wouldnt pay more that �320 - any more and I would be looking at a SH MF system. By the way, has anyone out there got some pictures taken with the A85/1.4 they would care to share with us? For such a well regarded lens there seems to be a real lack of photos taken with it on the web - or at least that I can find. It really would be nice to see what it is capable of, having such a good reputation and all. Antonio.
