Herb, Once again, you demonstrate your total ignorance of how the world works.
If Pentax goes out of business, Pentax users will, over a few short years, migrate to other brands, and there will be no demand for Pentax lenses. Meanwhile, they certainly won't invest in more Pentax lenses, new or used. If you think otherwise, you're nuttier than a fruitcake.
Some people think collectors will keep the market going. I have to tell you that there isn't a hope of that happening. There are far more lenses available than the small number of collectors will ever require.
I suspect Pentax lens prices have now pretty much peaked, and will start to come down as Pentax ramps up production of new digi lenses. If you really believe you're sitting on a gold-mine, then you're living in cloud-cuckoo land. But why don't you put your money where your mouth is: hang onto them as an investment, and buy Canon to use?
It's now clear what your nasty little plan is. You want to drive Pentax out of business because you are crazy enough to think that that will raise the value of your kit. Fortunately, words fail me at this point.

they won't be worth very little especially if Pentax goes completely out of business, they would be worth a lot more. i could sell them all to this mailing list. in fact, some of them will wait until they are 30 years old before being sufficiently aged. it will, however, take a couple of years before they are worth what i deem worthwhile selling because the vast majority were bought new.....
