ebay is the world's largest flea market. screw mount stuff is cheap and plentiful
there. Prices will be much less
than KEH and so are the reputation of the sellers.
That said I have purchased perhaps 40 pentax items over ebay in the last 18 months and
have never been completely
ripped off. I"ve been frayed a few times, but
not zipped. The problems have usually been with sellers who were not crooks,but
rather simply didn't know their
merchandise. LIkewise, I have never had a seller whom I have asked to make an
adjustment refuse. My purchases
have run the full range from filters and film to big ticket lenses: In one case an
SMC-A 15mm
ultra wide angle, and in another case an SMC-A* 300 mm F2.8, which is a big ticket
item in anybodies book.
