I read further down the thread that the lens case cost $3,900, and I guess that is USD. Somewhere else, $79,000 (also US presumably) was mentioned

Added to the price of the lens, you would have to get a golf bag & buggy to cart the thing around with you!!!!!!!!
Not to mention the tripod set up to hold the thing up ????????????????? 
My back is stuffed now so it’s no good to me!!!!
