Collapsible Summicron @ on the bay

[Mongo Park]

Have just spotted a used "mint" collapsible Summicron M on the auction site for £749.99 (approx $1,212 US). This has got to be a joke, yes? I bought one such lens in similar condition about 3 years ago for £180. Perhaps I should sell it now!!! Link is below.

Even if you don't like the guy, Ken Rockwell once summarized `Buy it now' prices as `Pipe dreams of the seller'.

Until it's sold, price != value.

I would be very happy to sell mine for that price. Contact me if interested.

I'd never sell mine, but I think it cost around $375 six years ago.
