I'll second that. I searched for years for Pentax SMC Tak screwmount lenses and found only a few decent ones. Once I discovvered ebay, I was able to find every lens I wanted in a matter of months. In the last month, I was able to sell a medium format camera that I didn't use any more and buy one I always wanted. I've bought some wonderful antique jewelry for my wife and some nostalgia toys for my grown children. I haven't had anywhere near as many transactions as JCO, but from the more than 50 that I have been involved in, I only received two items that were not acceptable. In both cases, the sellers refunded my money without question.. Ebay is super. Paul
