How much does this fetch?

[ywenz]

Can't find any info on ebay or keh..

A current edition Summicron 50mm with all boxes and papers, lens body in excellent but not mint quality, glass however is perfect.

I want to sell mine but can't get an idea on the price I should put on it. Are used Leica lenses more valuable nowadays with all the M8s out there?

I think you could easily get $850 for one. They go for twice that much in the store. For new-used items I think 60% of current store price is fair. You can look here too:

Good luck with your sale.

B&H's catalog says Condition 8 means "Well used, may exhibit dings or finish marks.'' In other words, doesn't look too good...
