So apparently I’ve collected quite a bit of stuff over the last little while. I’m a shooter not a collector so a bunch of it has to go. As such I’m looking to sell some stuff that doesn’t get enough (or in some cases any) use. I have positive feedback on Fourthirdsphoto, FredMiranda, Pentaxforums and GetDPI as Albino_BlacMan and on ebay as ctp046.

All prices include shipping unless otherwise noted. I accept most payment methods. All prices are negotiable and I'm happy to do package deals. If any of my prices are way out of line feel free to fire me a PM. I like to keep communications quick so if I don’t hear back from you 48 hours after I send a PM/email than I reserve the right to sell the item to a different buyer.

Nikon 43-86/3.5 - $55 Shipped
Glass: Clean and clear with no scratches fungus or haze. Minor internal dust.
Aperture: Smooth and snappy. No oil and only minor wear.
Focus/Zoom: Both are smooth and even throughout entire range. Sounds and feels exactly like the other 2 43-86’s I sold recently.
Cosmetics: Pretty rough condition (call it user). Rubber grip shows some fading. Mount shows some definite wear and you can some pretty good rear on the rear of the lens (as seen in pictures). Also has a 9 digit number engraved in the side (likely a SIN) and they didn’t do a nice job and get it laser etched or anything.
Accessories: comes with a rear cap and 52mm Hoya skylight filter.

Glass: Clean and clear with no scratches fungus or haze. Not much for internal dust.

Focus/Zoom: Focus is smooth. Zoom is pretty still. It takes quite a bit of force to get it started one you stop zooming.
AF: Appears fast and accurate.
Cosmetics: Rough condition (consider it user). Shows some pretty good wear on one side of the aperture ring and a pretty good scratch on the clear plastic over the focus scale.
Accessories: Comes with a Nikon rear cap.
