Got this lens on eBay. Not deliever yet, and due to lack information on the net I wonder if it's any good?
The price was 70euros, I guess a bit 2 much for a 3rd party zoom, but M42, f3.5 and the zoom range made me try it out.
Looks like this:

Why do you think this was Tomioka made? I didn't know they made zooms...

Crazy price? Not necessarily.
If you like it, it was worth it and the parameters like f/3.5 and 35-105 sound really good.
We should always try to trust our own opinion. Why be angry about €70,- for a zoom lens just because there is almost no information about it on the net. If you get and you like it, you have a very versatile lens that will serve you well. That's pretty good for €70,-, isn't it?

As far as i remember, this lens is exactly same lens as the JC Penny 35-105mm f3.5 m42 and may be the same lens you can find in the Hoya, Makinon and Vivitar brand.

To me it looks similar to the Sun macro zooms from the late 70"s early 80's..
I'd like to see a picture of the front of the lens after you get it.

Got the lens today.
Well there's 1:5 1:7 1:10 macro... Never used it before, but it looks like close focus is better 
After some testing I've figured out that zoom lens is not for me, prefer using fixed ones. So this lens would probably go to the marketplace section next week with the 50 euros price.
Anyways, here's some test pictures:
Macro
Shot at 35mm F4
Shot at 105mm F3.5
Shot at 105mm F4
Bokeh at 105mm non macro

It delivers very nice images to be sure. I'm not generally a zoom fan either. I've never had one that lacked adequate sharpness, they were just never particularly characteristic. |

Well it's not always about the sharpness. Got here a AF Sigma IF DL 28-105, almost the same level of sharpness wide open, but its 3.8-5.6 So quite nice for a constant f3.5, and the soft focus option available with the fastest apperture
Bokeh is also very nice and smooth, especially for a cheap zoom. |
