I'm offered one for 165USD, no shipping cost, no customs.
I was just looking for an ultra-wide and this one is a very attractive deal.
Should I delay the flek 20 and use this opportunity?
I can sell my Tele-Tessar 4/200 (it is on the way from UK) for 120usd (its cost to me or just keep it too Razz)

This is a great lens and price is good, I suggest to delay Flek.

Thats a very cheap price for that. Consider it an investment.

Indeed I couldn't as the seller told me that the lens went to fixing the aperture but the repairmen has broken the last element optic!

I'm seeing this guy so I'm not sure, it can be or it can not be. He said that he gave the lens to the repairman and got the money but to be honest these glasses is not easy to broke so I don't know...

I've bought a Tele-Tessar 50/2.8 and X 35/3.5 (I couldn't remember the brand) from him for 45usd so I'm not complaining.

A repair man never brake glass I think they are not that stupid.

Indeed I'm agree with you but I still want to think positive about the guy. He takes the glass generally free and sells with low prices.
For example I'll get 2 lenses just to test and then will sell them:
Beroflex 135/2.8 = 25usd
Mamiya Sekor 200/3.5 = 25usd
Consider that if I buy these from ebay I'll pay 25-35usd just for shipping.

Attila, guys, how does that lens once compare to the newer Contax Zeiss Sonnar 180mm?

Contax Sonnar is better from any aspects no doubt.

Carl Zeiss Jena zebra better than MC Shocked

and I have one old Olympic ones from five what is equal level of Contax Shocked
