SK charged my about $75 for a CLA, but any 40+ year-old lens will eventually need a CLA. You should also plan on using it with a hood. The hood costs about as much as the lens, but also fits the 90 Elmar. Try to get a later (39 mm) lens, rather than the 36 mm version, for the convenience of filter interchangeability. The Hektor seems to ebb and flow in popularity. I recall a magazine article a few years back that featured it, causing a big increase in interest in the Leica community. It is the cheapest Leica M lens that you are ever likely to encounter.
