It's like either the guy who bumped the price with his early bids had absolutely no idea what he was doing (I was the only bidder in the last hour), or somebody played a prank on me.
I actually found an SMC Tak 50 F1.4 the other night with buy it now of $35 and $10 shipping. I'm very, very curious about how this is going to turn out.... The front cover appears to have been drilled, but on the edge, so as to grip it off, so i'm thinking it's DEFINITELY been opened up. Outer condition is missing a lot of paint, but has character. LIsted as condition "Used," with "OPTICS GOOD"
This is either the deal of the month, or I just bought junk.
Congrats on winning your auction.
