Have I proposed a fair exchange?

[-vin-]

In the WTT section I've recently put an ad: I wanted to trade an elmar 50 (last type) with a 90mm (adding money by one side or the other if necessary) or a CL/CLE with 40mm.

I think I probably asked too much: nobody considered my offer...
So, which is the value of an elmar 50/2.8 with lenses in exc conditions and body with some signs?

 

[-vin-]

it seems nobody read this thread...

now I'm also considering to sell the lens, and before putting it in the classifieds, I'd like to know its value. Is there anybody who can help me?

Vin,

I bought a chrome elmar 2.8 second hand from a dealer in the UK for €350 and it seemed a fair price. I've seen them cheaper but probably older versions. The other good way of determining value is to search E-B** for completed listings, this usually gives a good indication.

Hope this helps
