Not surprising. Your expectation is based on what you paid for it new.
They're thinking about how much they can sell it for, and they're not
going to offer more than half that (or less), because they have to cover
their overhead and still make a profit.
K5 with a kit lens *might* bring in $450 on eBay ... if you have the
original box & all the goodies.

Holy cow. Just got back from the local photo shoppe. I was expecting a
low quote for the K5 because the bottom is all scuffed up. I was NOT
expecting a lowball on the 16-50. They offered $180 for the body and $100
for the lens - due to the "low resale value of Pentax these days" and a
very tiny nick on the front of the lens. For a full package offer of $280
I'm just going to keep 'em and figure out my next move. Sheesh!

You should buy yourself a Leitz lens. It's a very good investment
because afterwards everything else seems cheap.
I did look at some a while back.
Is there a good web site listing all available/made?
Something like Boz's site?
