Sold for 160 as I recall (I watched it). Its modified into a custom casing with no focusing anymore - would need to be rebuilt somehow.

FWIW, I won lot 332 with a bid of $25USD. With fees and shipping it'll surely triple to around $75, but for that I received:

250mm f/4.5 Piesker Picon lens (M42)
28mm f/3.5 Super Takumar with a scratch on the lens (M42)
50mm f/1.8 Meyer Optik Oreston (M42)
85mm f/2.8 Steinheil Culminar (M42)
135mm f/3.5 Super-Takumar (M42)
55mm f/2.5 Vivitar 1:1 macro lens (M42)
50mm f/1.7 Yashica lens (M42)
105mm f/2.4 Accura lens (T mount)

Looking forward to the Steinheil and the Vivitar. Anyone here use either of those?

Did they accept bids under the mimimum?

If no one bid, since it was a live auction, they just lowered the starting bid, sometimes a few times until they passed the auction with no buyer. Several times this occured in fact, making nice deals for some lucky bidders. I was tempted to buy things I had no interest in just because it was so cheap, but in the end I was pleased to get something I could use at the price and allowed the same joy to others.

Angenieux 28/3.5 and a 35/2.5 sold quite low (around 160 each I think), also Pentax rectilinear 15/3.5 sold for 470. There were 700 lots auctioned from this collection in all - took most of the afternoon, but was fun to watch (and bid!).

Thanks btw cilinderman for posting, I probably wouldn't have seen it otherwise.
