For sale is a Dallmeyer Patent 2B Lens in good condition, with a couple of issues. The glass is clear, with some faint cleaning marks on the rear cell. It is a 210mm lens with a very fast aperture of f/3, and would be great for wet plate photography. It will cover the 5x7 format easily. The lens cpmes with one waterhouse stop. There are no caps, but I will find something to protect the lens during shipping.
The issues with this lens are:
1. The hood cannot be removed.
2. The soft focus adjustment at the rear cannot be moved.
3. The rack and pinion adjustment is stiff.
Some penetrating oil, patience and elbow grease should correct these.

Buying goods online coming from a non-European Union country
As soon as you buy a product from a non-EU country, then effectively you become an importer and become liable to Customs and Excise Duty as well as Value Added Tax (VAT) payments.
