Too bad we never see hings like this here in my area. I did see a 370 dollar K100D and a 500 dollar Kx on my local CL though.

I've seen that lens on that couch before, thought someone picked it up last year?

Yes I spotted it on craighlist , one month ago, helped by brandx on the other forum. I didn't trust the seller : won't give me the serial number, cash only, and more than that, doesn't have the original case. Very suspect to me

Hey, I thought I recognized that couch also.

I think it's strange that the seller tries to sweeten the deal with a quick release plate and a backpack - as if those items would close the sale on a lens of this calibre! Anybody in the area interested in taking a look?

I can think of only one reason why he wouldn't be willing to give the serial number.

What is a 3/4 camera-J/K Seems to me like somebody is missing this lens....

Hey I'm going off topic, but a couple months back this guy on DP review said one was stolen from his luggage. I don't have a DP review account, if someone does though it would be swell to link him to the listing.
