There is no known 1:2.8/90 Elmar lens.  Either it is a 1:2.8/90 Elmarit, or
a 1:4/90 Elmar lens.
$900 US (I assumed US because you seem to be in the SF Bay Area) is high for
all but the current 1:2.8/90, triple Elmar 1:4/90, or a silver fat
Tele-Elmarit.  The first Elmarit in mint condition can fetch more, though.
