New Record for first type 35mm Summicron?

[Ron (Netherlands)]

Prices were still going up lately for all the 35mm Summicrons, however this is the first time I see a type 1 going through the Euro 3000 barrier...

That's not far short of $3800! It has to be the cosmetics and it's made in Wetzlar too. I have one and the cosmetics suck but it's a brilliant lens and built like a brick. You wonder if this one will ever get used.
