[Leica] Sale or Trade: M 90mm Apo ASPH

[phongdoan at gmail.com (Phong)]

Hi Wayne,

The lens was delivered this morning, and I must say that I am
disappointed with the cosmetic condition of the lens.  I agreed to the
full asking price because of your description "as near perfect as
possible".  Given the clear sign of use, including loss of the paint
on the rings, showing the metal, I would say this is not "as near
perfect as possible".  I realize this is a subjective call, and rather
than disputing your assessment, I respectfully ask for a refund minus
any shipping cost on your part, of course.

Please advise.

Regards,

- Phong
