Hi,
I'm want to sell my lens: Telyt-R 1:4, 250 mm, Leitz Canada, serial no. 286xxxx, made in 1977 (type 1). It's in very good order, with build-in lens hood, both caps, no box no manual.

I'm trying to sell it locally (Holland, EU) first and got a first offer of €150. I paid €627 for this lens 12 years ago. I don't need to get this much but I was thinking about €350 / €325 or so. These lenses seem to sell on Ebay for about €399 (checked sold items).

I just wondered what a fair price is for these kind of Leica-R lenses today?

Have a look at some of the reputable Leica dealers web sites. € 350-400 seems about right.

Thanks!
I think I'll stick at € 350 asking price and €320 bottom price for now and see what happens.
It's a very beautiful lens but I hardly used it in all these years.
I'm more into 20 - 80 mm range for 135 format.
