I stopped in to the last full service camera store within easy driving
distance today and lo and behold they actually had some Pentax gear in
their used camera case. A ZX-5n with FA 28-80mm kit for for about
$60.00 a trio of K1000 cameras, (looked mostly like mid era Hong Kong
variants with f1.7 and f2.0 M and A lenses), for about $125.00 a piece,
and finally an FA 28-70mm f4.0 for the grand total of $20.00.
I thought it was sad but telling that the autofocus camera was less
valuable than the K1000s but I thought that the 28-70mm was seriously
under-priced. I've had a couple of them and while it seems a bit
cheesy mechanically than the other FA lenses I've used, optically it's a
great lens on film or digital. A real bargain at $20.00.

Don't lose heart! They might want to cut it out, and they'll want to avoid a
lengthily search.
