Oh, I just checked the KEH website, they don't have any SMC Pentax F or A 70-210 units, only the Takumar F 70-210 and a bunch of F/FA 70-200s. The Tac.has the reputation of being a dog. I was able to get my very good condition SMC Pentax version on e-bay for only a few dollars more than the price KEH has for the Tak. Steer clear of those as well.
