The FA* 28-70mm is (still??) sold new in Germany (Foto Palme) for 1279

Plus shipping of course - probably 100 Euro on top of it.
Last time (about three years ago) I looked, in the UK it was ~£1400.
That was a long time ago. Look at this:

But Rob is right. We've been ripped off in this country for years. My
latest enablement (the 12-24) came from Germany, at a saving of around 20%
on the lowest UK price.

European buyers may want a new one and pay a few hundreds more.
(Sigh: Why doesn't Pentax make lenses like that anyore?)

The Buy It Now prices seem steep to me, but, hey, people out there are
paying that much for them (except for that really high GBP 1300
listing).
You've got it the wrong way round, Mark. USA prices are really cheap.
Just ask people to put in offers, using the BIN price as a base. I can
almost guarantee you will sell them abroad.
Would be buying one of them myself if I wasn't liable to end up without
certain body parts, courtesy of my darling spouse.
