To give you an idea, I know a person who bid against her husband on an item so she could give it to him as a xmas present... (and no she normally is not stupid).

that's still better than no such privilege at all. whch seems to be the case with almost all ebay listings. and there are *very few* people who would agree to refund the whole payment (bid + s/h).
otoh, if an item is clearly misrepresented (mis-advertised), you can (in a long and painful process) get most of your money back from ebay, without seller's cooperation at all. i know, i did once, a few year ago.
but, imo, the price is (way) too high, no matter what. perhaps the buyer just wanted the lens that much :)
best, mishka

I don't know about the K versions but the 15mm SMCTs have all been selling for over a $1000 lately on ebay. One thing I do not like on this listing is the seller expects you to pay shipping and insurance costs for the privilige of returning his mis-adverstised items. That's absurd if the error is gross and on the part of the seller. Wheres the incentive for him to list it correctly if the buyer pays the price for his mistakes? JCO

AL version? What's that? I didn't think the K15/3.5 was all that rare to warrant so high a price as this one sold for. Is this a reasonable price for a K15/3.5? Wasn't there a SMC Tak 15/3.5 as well? I'd like to learn more about the various iterations of this lens. Anybody an expert on these puppies?

I wonder if someone determined this was the AL version? According to Boz/Dario, only 100 were made.
