Opinions on Super Takumar 200/f4

You guys are getting rooked in the U.S. Over here the Super Takumar 200/4 can usually be had for about forty bucks.

It sounds like Japan is the place to buy the 200/4. Although, it is hard to argue with an EX+ grade lens from KEH (with caps and hood, too). Usually, a KEH EX+ lens is almost indistinguishable from new. I saw a 200/4 on GreedBay for $135 BIN. Now that is getting rooked. There are very few bargains left on that auction site these days.
