Subject: [Leica] Value of 35mm Summicron w/"eyes"

               I have a 35mm Summicron w/"eyes" for the M3, S/N 1671971, 
               and I'm thinking of selling it primarily because I just 
               don't use it.  It was just CLA'ed and the "eyes" adjusted by 
               Focal Point.  John cleaned up a small fungus spot on one of 
               the inside elements; otherwise the glass looks good and the 
               mount, etc. looks clean to me. Feel free to ask him about 
               the lens.  Getting the lens cleaned up got me thinking that 
               someone might be able to use the lens rather than having it 
               sit in my camera bag.  In the 10+ years I've owned it, I 
               probably haven't shot more than 25-30 photos with it (I like 
               50mm and 90mm much more).  It has a metal lens cap and the 
               IROOA hood, and a plastic rear cap.
               
               Anybody care to give me an "about" as to what would be a 
               reasonable asking price?  I would post it here before using 
               eBay or trading it in.
