The seller says it's a brand new... (old stock)
What do you think?
Does it look okay?
How does Tair 11-a compare with CZJ 135/3.5? |

In the past I've bought the Mir 35/2 from this seller (I think it's grizzly33bear)
Item was 100% as described, communication 100%
But it took to get here 15days I think, even though I'm from europe
And yes, it's brand new, he must be getting them from some warehouse or so |

Not high at all - they've shot up in price - currently going for around £60 gbp uncased in excellent condition on ebay.co.uk
sellers are liinking to a certain forum  and it's driving prices up as they show how good it is.. Trioplans have similarly been effected.
Grizzlybear is very reliable in my experience but atleast to the UK shipping can take aa month.

Like Richard stated, it will take a while for the package to arrive. Don't be surprised if it takes 4 or 5 weeks.

BTW, grizzly is actually a lady - Zhanna. She is very knowledgeable and helpful. Ask her where she buys the new/old stock and I bet she'll tell you.

You won't be disappointed and the price is about right now. I'm still amazed at how they've risen  in percentage terms over a year. That one looks complete - you get a red, green and a UV filter with it. Looks like you get a choice of mounts with it too, mine only had M42.

I think the other mount is Nikon. I have almost purchased this lens from her several times. Usually when I buy from European sellers, I will buy several items so I can cut the shipping costs a bit.

I just pray that my wife doesn't find out about this.....but I know it's impossible.
She checks mail everyday.....including packages. 
And yet, this disease still doesn't go away. |
