Whats this baby worth? (Nikkor AIS 20mm f2.8 )
Absolute minty condition, considering letting it go for a pair of PW's +.

Should I hold out until nikon go FF and then these lenses will become more valuable? ( :lol: )

About $300-400 I will say, but if so minty that you have the manual and boxes, add another $50 on the auction site :P

I think one of the issues with this lens is that the rear element sticks out the back a fair amount and can easily get scratched or marked. If your copy is damage free on the rear element, it would be worth putting up an image of the damage free rear element. And stress the damage free nature. Might help the sale process a bit.
Cheers

I have the original gold box, foam insert, manual + leather tie case for it.
Its rear element is unmarked.

I am only the second owner and I knew the first and between us I think its been used maybe a dozen times or less.

thanks for the input!
