Yep. I have time now. I just got off the call. The lens repair was quick. A couple of weeks at the most. One of the two flash repairs was fast; the other took several weeks as they had to wait for a part. I also had my K-5 in to fix the mirror motor problem. They were unable to get parts for that after about four weeks. i had an important shot coming up, so I hammered them a bit, and they talked Pentax into sending me a new camera. That was excellent, since my K-5 was already at a shutter count of about 30,000.
I dug through my receipts and found the ticket for 60-250 lens repair. It was $159 plus $15 shopping for a total of $174.00 The description says they replaced the AF motor, adjusted the lens to manufacturers specs, and did a general check and clean.
