FS: Leica Tele-Elmarit *Thin* 90mm f/2.8

[dubes]

I am selling a Leica Tele-Elmarit 90mm f/2.8 (thin version) in user condition, with original front and rear lens caps, B+W 39mm UV filter, and after-market rubber lens hood. Serial # starts with 2794. I had this lens cleaned and repaired about a year and a half ago (the focus had a gritty feel; it's better but still not smooth). Takes great pictures when I use it, but it does appear to be in the early stages of suffering from internal etching (sometimes referred to as 'Tele-Elmarit Disease). I find myself reaching for my 35 or 50 most often these days, so this lens deserves to be used while it can.

I am asking $600 including shipping and Paypal fees for a U.S. buyer.

Thanks for looking!
