Greetings All,
PRICE DROP: $300 for everything. PayPal, USPS Priority Mail Insured &
tracked in CONUS included. Shipping anywhere else at actual cost through
the USPS.

This is the first Leica lens that I purchased. I bought it from a member
of this group. Alas, my old brain doesn't remember who that was.
Suffice to say, it was a good purchase as I have enjoyed the lens.
Unfortunately, it is time to send this lens to a new home.
Today, we have for sale an all German made package of a chrome 90mm F/2.8
Elmarit with matching front & rear caps, Leitz 39mm UVa filter and IUFOO
hood. The lens functions flawlessly. The glass is all clean and clear. The
iris is free of any oil or other gunk and the aperture control is smooth
and all stops are present. The focus is smooth and precise. The vulcanite
and red dot are solidly attached and look new.
In the interest of full disclosure, the lens arrived in my hands with a
minor cosmetic blemish in the surface of the focus ring below the distance
scale. You will note in the photo that the marks look much worse than they
are in person. In fact, I had to work at making them show up in the
photos. The only thing wrong here is the satin finish has been rubbed off
at sometime in the life of the lens. There are no scratches or gouges that
you can feel with your finger. Certainly there is nothing that degrades
the images produced by the lens.

I will gladly accept cash, check or USPS money order.
I will entertain reasonable offers.
Cheers!
