My first (or one of my first) eBay purchases was a Super-Multi-Coated Tak 135/3.5. It's a great lens (one of the most underrated of the screwmounts, probably, just because it's so common), but I had no idea of its value. I was too excited to bother searching completed auctions, so I wound up getting it for something like $75 or $80 US, when they normally go for about $50 US or so. *L* Anyway, it was a good lens, and I've been happy with it. chris - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
