Box for Pentax-M 28/2.8

Asking Price
0.00 USD

Item Location
Near Charlotte, NC (United States)

Item Description
Okay. Here's the scoop: I've had two gen-U-wine Pentax lens boxes. One for the M 28mm f2.8 and one for the A 20mm f2.8. The one for the 20mm is headed north, but the one for the 28 needs a home. I've seen folks listing lens boxes for...well... stoopid money on eBay. Who knows whether they ever sell. That being said, I don't have either of these lenses anymore, and perhaps one of our fine members could use one of these to enhance their collection. The styrofoam pieces are inside the boxes. No documentation.

So, here's the deal. If you want either of these, PM me. I'll ship it to you via USPS. They're empty boxes; they can't cost much to ship, probably sub $5. That cost and my return address will be on the shipping box. You can either stick green money in an envelope and mail it back to me, or if you insist on being modern, you can PayPal it to me (it wouldn't be a lie to say it was a gift). I'll trust you to follow through...after all, I'll have your address...

So, lemme know if you needit!

It's astonishing what some people will pay for an empty box on Ebay isn't it!!!! This is a nice gesture.

dbs · 05-17-2021, 09:20 PM

At least the lens is known not to be in the box .

Very fine looking boxes indeed.
They really feel lonely without the lenses......

Bump to draw attention to the "Free for postage" part.

**MXLX** · 06-03-2021, 06:47 AM

I put 'em on eBay, but would be just as happy not making anything on them if they're useful to someone on the forum.

**MXLX** · 07-06-2021, 10:06 AM

Going...going...

trixtroll · 07-06-2021, 01:16 PM

I’ve got both of these lenses in mint condition, but I’m trying to decide if I need the boxes

**MXLX** · 07-08-2021, 06:18 AM

We could take a vote, but I'm pretty sure you do need 'em.

dbs · 07-09-2021, 05:49 PM

They still waiting for a new owner !......... Having the lens inside would help them find a new home a lot quicker.

I'm sure, but those ships sailed long ago.
