I have no experience with the lenses, but some experiences with the dealer (rugift.com). A few thoughts:
- At least a month to receive your purchase
- 1+ additional months to resolve defective merchandise
- No real way to contact the dealer
- Interesting business model...items are shipped as "gifts" from Russia to avoid customs duty...
- Poor rating from Better Business Bureau
As for the lenses, there are several members of this forum who use and love their Russian and former Soviet-block glass. If you have a sense of adventure, you might be rewarded!

(P.S. Some lenses may be ordered direct from the manufacturers. LZOS (maker of the Jupiter-9), for instance, maintains a Web store that is very price competitive to rugift.com.)
