I was weak
I am now awaiting some deliveries:
an experienced smc Pentax-DA 40mm F2.8 Limited and
the cap for a Pentax 21mm Limited lens which should fit the 40mm since they both use a 49mm filter
better luck to you guys in dealing with LBA

join the club - LBA is raising its ugly head
the best in its class - SMC Pentax-DA 40mm F2.8 XS or the SMC Pentax-DA 40mm F2.8 Limited
I know the build is different plastic vs. metal
but as far as I know, the optics are the same except for the blades are rounded on the XS
and the XS is smaller and lighter
and the Limited has " quick shift " a scale, a better cap, hood and it has that word ; " Limited "
and I already have the XS
and I just got my " experienced " SMC Pentax-DA 35mm F2.8 Limited Macro last month
but
there is a SMC Pentax-DA 40mm F2.8 Limited in the US for what I think is a great price in the Market Place
quick, some one buy it now, so I can end my dilemma

my " confession "
first, I have almost completely turned over my camera equipment in the last 18 - 24 months with the exception of a bridge camera [ Nikon coolpix p610 ] bought in the Spring of 2016 and a point and shoot [Canon Powershot A1100 IS ] purchased prior to 2011. I have been lucky enough to find good " experienced " equipment at good prices, a lot of them from the market place and good sales for the new stuff
I have: K 3 and K 3II and
SMC Pentax-DA 21mm F3.2 Limited
Kino Precision Japan Kiron 28mm F2 MC P/KA
SMC Pentax-DA 35mm F2.8 Macro Limited
SMC Pentax-DA 40mm F2.8 XS
SMC Pentax-DA 50mm F1.8
SMC Pentax-D FA 100mm F2.8 Macro
SMC DA * 300mm F4 ED (IF ) SDM

Second, I have " collected " for my perceived " needs ":
wide angle, field of view similar to film 35 lenses, macro, telephoto, maximum aperture, perceived quality - limited and star lenses
so I don't have an extreme collection
yet
