I love those misleading auctions. I believe they come about because
the seller is uninformed, not because the seller intends to deceive
anyone.

I got a mint SMCP-A 50/1.2 for $125. The advert said something like
"pentax 50mm" but the photo was the A 50/1.2, and I got confirmation
from the seller prior to bidding.

My most recent find was a not very well crafted Ebay ad which said
something about a P30T and 50/2.8 lens. Although I had to pay a couple
hundred bucks, what I got was a new P30t and a new-in-the-box FA
50/2.8 Macro. After I sell the P30t, the cost of my new FA 50/2.8
Macro will be very reasonable.

So I love those "misleading" auctions. Gimme more. I can avoid the
Takumar Bayonets all day long - I just want more good deals on the
other stuff.
