FS: Leica 75 APO Summicron ASPH 6 Bit

Hello,

I am selling my like-new 75mmAPO Summicron ASPH. I have owned it since new for 5-6 months and have used it less than 5 times. It is just a focal length I rarely use ,and is the only reason I am selling. That and I am using the $ to fund another lens purchase. Regardless, the lens has everything that came with it as you can see in the picture. There is not a mark on the barrel, and the glass is pristine. I am asking $3600 to your door 2nd day air, but will listen to offers if they are reasonable. A couple items of note:

1. Only US upper 48 states are eligible for the sale.
2. I will only ship to an actual address with direct signature of the individual purchasing the lens.
3. I would like to speak with the person on the phone to verify they are actually a human.
4. I will ship the item once the paypal has cleared. I learned my lesson the hard way on this one.

Please feel free to ask me any questions you like. I am on FM as well and have nothing but positive feedback there. Thanks!

I like note 3 the best; I feel this is a perfectly reasonable thing to ask! Good luck with the sale, Kit

I hate to have to put a couple of those in there. But a few grand later, I had no choice. I like to think everyone is fair and honest like myself. I learned my lesson the hard way :(

If it's any help to sellers/buyers outside the U S: re. selling to Australia, if the value listed on the package is >$1,000, then the local buyer is liable for Customs and GST charges (this adds about 25-30%).

Selling into the Eurozone, the buyer is liable for the local taxes too.

Thanks for clearing that up for me Kit. I have sold a couple lenses to Canada with no issues but never anywhere in the Euro zone.

I have bought and sold many things here and on FM (and many of them well above the $1,000 threshold that Australia has), and although I am not fond of paying these charges :))) I just factor them in. It is SOP that taxes are handled by the importer.

I have not have any U S buyer have to pay tax of any kind, but Canadian buyers always have to. hth, kl
