Looking for a Nikon AI kit

[JTD121]

Hey all,

New to the place, first post, etc, etc.

Recently bought a Nikkor-O 35mm f/2 pre-AI, and am wanting to convert it using a Nikon AI kit. Specifically looking for AI Kit #33 if anyone has it.

I am in the Northeast US if anyone needs to know the location, and I have some feedback on eBay, unless there are other havens for 'good feedback' you would accept.

The two places I know which stock AI conversion kits do not have this particular one:

Crystal Camera
Pacific Rim Camera

Yeah, I already checked there. Tried eBay for a bit, but couldn't find any for 35mm lenses, nevermind the one I need.

Trolled through Craigslist, no dice. KEH doesn't seem to have any at all, unless I am looking with the wrong criteria or search terms.

I was thinking someone might have one they wanted to sell for a reasonable price, rather than from a business, since it seems none too easy to find ones have them.

Thanks for the links, I will check them out.

Myself, I am looking for the Ai kit #44 to convert my Nikkor-Q 135/2.8
Any European Union sellers are of particular interest to me. If I can't find the factory conversion kit I'll have my local camera repair shop mill it for me.

Seymore, thanks, I have a 55/1.2 that has no AI kit on its' way to John as I type this.

If I can't find a kit, I will probably send the lens to John in a couple weeks (money permitting).
