That is funny 
The question is, will anybody fall for it?
Incidentally, this lens looks identical to my Tele-Astranar 135/3.5, which is a T-mount. I wonder if he has his mount correct?

Looks like oily blades and one of it is stucked. I guess he is right with the unique bokeh, but as stated earlier, missing 'works well'. |

They do say that God loves a trier - "This lens is suitable for serious photographers who seek after excellent picture quality but don't want to spend a fortune.
Very rare lens on the market which produce very unique color. Color produced by this lens is quite different from the Pentax Takumar which is good to add in your collection to give a bit of variety..."

What a tool - he must think buyers are as stupid as he is.
Why, I would travel far and wide to find a lens with a broken diaphragm and also, one that's nothing like a Takumar.

If he'd had his wits about him, he'd have included the word Prototype in his description - that would practically guarantee gazillions of monies
