WTB: Konica AR 50mm f1.7

Well as you can see from my post history I've had terrible luck with these old lenses. So figure I'd try getting one from a respected member of this site.

Looking for: Konica AR 50mm f1.7. Would love a 50mm f1.4 but that may be out of budget.
Looking to spend: Is $40 shipped reasonable? If not, tell me how much you're looking for.
Condition: Normal internal dust from age is fine. Please no haze, fungus, balsam separation, oil on blades, slow aperture, stiff focus, etc.
Location: NJ, USA.
Special Request: Would like it to be listed for purchase on eBay if we agree on deal. Just easier to purchase since I don't use Paypal. I have 100% eBay feedback on the purchases I've made.

I know it's a long shot but thanks for looking.

Edit: So I noticed most on this forum aren't from the US. Maybe I should be open to international sellers and increase my budget correspondingly?

I'm allowing your topic to remain in the WTB section because you want to use ebay for any transaction, however the other Admins may not agree and may delete your post.

Notice the rules don't allow "bumping". Smile

My knowledge of camera equipment is a bit limited but I have a konica Auto-Reflex A camera and it has a 52mm f/1.8 attached to it. I also have a
Konica Hexanon AR 400mm f4.5, same one found on this post: https://forum.mflenses.com/konica-hexanon-ar-400mm-f4-5-t75608.html

Im going to list them on ebay fairly soon I think but would be willing to work something out if you're interested.

cheers
