[Leica] FS: 35mm Voigtlander Nokton Asph f1.2 Ver I

[filippiniaia at hotmail.com (Matthew B. Filippini)]

I'm de-lurking to attempt a sale:
I bought this lens from Bob Baron in 2011.  Bob's original ad is below.  I 
think the lens is in the same condition as he describes.
I did not use it nearly as much as I thought I would, and I could use the 
money right now.  I'm selling it for the same price I bought it from Bob, 
$800.
Bob absorbed the Paypal fees and 2-day FedEx delivery, so I will do the same.
Some additional info:Version II is now $1200 plus shipping from Cameraquest, 
less than the 2011 price in Bob's ad.
To save you some research, I looked up recent actual sales on eBay for 
Version I, and came up with these, from low to high:$729 + $11.59 shipping, 
with box$721 + $30 shipping$760$750 + $9.50 shipping, with NEX adapter$780 + 
$8.75 shipping, with box, two marks on glass$845 + $10.50 shipping, with 
box$890, with box$895$880 + $20 shipping$885 + $24 shipping, with box$900 + 
$21 shipping, with filters$1009, with vented hood and filter (looks like a 
Ver. I to me, but ad doesn't specify)
I'd like to sell this in the US, to avoid customs, etc.
Contact me off-list at filippiniaia at hotmail dot com.
Thanks for looking!

I bought this used last summer from a well known LUGer and while it is
a very good lens I've decided it is larger and heavier than what I
prefer to carry around so I'm putting it back on the market.

There is some minimal paint wear on the barrel and a bit more on the
screw-on hood but it is optically and operationally clean and fine. It
is M mount (not 6 bit coded) and comes with both caps, no case
or papers.

He did buy it new from Cameraquest and it had the latest M8 mount
modification when he bought it.

I see there is now a Version 2 for $1399. I want what I paid for this
one: $800.  That will include insured USPS shipping in the US, at cost
elsewhere.  PayPal is ok.

If interested please contact me OFF LIST at rbaron at concentric dot net
