Gee, Phong,
I don't know. I don't buy and sell, but my 35 f2.0 was $900.00 from Don
Chatterton a few months ago. I saw similar prices at the time. The lowest
I've seen was $795.00. It's a beautiful little lens that is said by expert
testers to hold its own with its aspheric cousins once you close the f stop
to about f4. I love mine and use it a lot.
Sincerley,
Joe Stephenson

Hi Joe, Gary, Dawn & other Luggers
     $900 for a non-asph 35mm f/2.0 sounds high to me.  I would say
     it shouldn't be more than $700-$750.
