I've refused to do business with KEH since the 
early 1990's after they sent me five 
mis-identified and mis-graded items.  They may 
have corrected their ways since then, buy five 
times burned was enough for me.  They DID take 
the items back and DID refund my money but enough 
was enough and I've never since considered giving 
them my business.  I even asked that they quit 
sending me their catalogue, which they promptly did.

If they've they improved their ways, that is 
great.  It would seem a simple matter to sort out 
an Exakta BM lens from an M42 lens but that was a 
huge challenge for them in 1992.
