That is actually a decent price for what is, if working, a very good lens. I wish the one I had purchased used had been more accurate aperture-wise as I liked the IQ.
Yeah, but you gotta zoom with your feet.

This Tamron SP Adaptall 5.6 300mm (close focus) does not seem to have the much needed mount adapter. To make things worse, there is some fungus as well. The buyer will have a lot to do before this thing is of any use.
Many AdaptAll lenses are sold without the mount adapter - and usually the seller notes that the buyer needs to provide it.(*)
Fungus is not normally included, however.

This Canon 50mm f/1.2 is on sale at $430. I suppose it is worth that much. The interesting part is that the seller seems to have the scoop on a Pentax mirrorless camera that can use it:

That must be a very special adaptar...

This "collection" is apparently worth $300 of somebody's money. I will pass on the opportunity.

I know that's "silly money" to most of us, but Grays of Westminster, which is probably the main UK Nikon-only "prestige" dealership, is selling quite a few FMs at prices not that far off that being asked for the one in the listing
