Yes, you can have the body although I'm not intending to bid too high and there are many watchers so we'll see how it goes.
Cool bananas. If you win it, I'll send you a courier sack.

There is a Super-Takumar 28mm F3.5 (model 1 early) that just came up if anyone is interested.
Seems good value and said to be in perfect condition.

Yeah but must pick up. @ unanswered questions tho. Probably people asking about couriering - keep your eyes open - it is a snip.

Gotta be the early Sup tak 28 3.5. According to the review images it is the only wide with f22. Tempted to put a bid in to kill the buy now but might get me neg feedback.

Yeah, I'm pretty surprised and feel a bit guilty about it.
Especially after the rip off of his Canon gear last week which is already being resold for 3x the price...
At least, I'm going to make good use of my purchase, not for resale!

Well MarkJerling, the camera is yours. Will let you know once it turns up.

You got it through an honest and fair process and got lucky - no need to feel guilty. Most importantly the lens still has its good karma intact!! Absolutely vital for great shots.

Thank you! Good buy. That's a steal for that lens. Flick me a PM with your address and I'll send you a courier label or sack.

Yeah, such a steal I'll just send you the camera, no sack needed, it's on me. That's the least I can do since you didn't keep bidding.
