Will consider shipping worldwide (i'm in the U.S.). NO Paypal fees.
Optically perfect. Looks like some skin oils in creases that will clean out (should have done more cleanup before these pictures). Appearance is very good. No oil on aperture blades, very snappy. Not a TRACE of fungus. This is one of the most highly-rated Takumars and is prized for its optical qualities, low light capabilities, and shallow depth of field (including videographers) which explains why the price on these keeps going up. I'm fairly confident that whatever you pay for this lens today it will bring more tomorrow.
Selling only because I need to finance another purchase. 
Judge condition for yourself:
$365 plus shipping. Shipping $10 to the continental U.S.
6-10 day delivery worldwide will be about $30-35. (Express Mail Global)
Priority Mail would be less, but slower... your choice. PM me for a shipping quote (serious buyers only, please).[/img]

I can vouch for the seller, having bought from him before and now the proud owner of the K mount version of this lens. |

IMHO one of the Top 10 M42 lenses over made - if not even top 3 ...

Thanks for the comments/testimonials everyone!
I've dropped the price, but removed the hood from the package. I know it would bring this on that infernal auction site, so this will be the final price reduction. Thanks for looking!
PS... apologies for going oversize on the pics. Just saw the requirements. My bad!

It may be my imagination but one of those aperture blades looks a little wonky. The iris is not quite uniform.
