I was just at the KEH sight looking for the price of a used 210 that would cover 8x10, or maybe a 300 in a shutte, to replace my 300 with no shutter.

You have to go through all of the pages to get to what you want. You don't have the option of clicking on the lens range you are looking for. WHat should have taken me 2 minutes took about a half an hour as I browsed EVERY DAMN LENS THEY HAD.

They are like the pusher standing outside the rehab clinic.

Oh well, that is how I spent the last half an hour.
 
It is possible to click "Show All" on the new site so that you don't have to go 10 items at a time. It took me a while to tumble to that one.
 
hehe the LF lenses are sorted by the focal length, so the 300mm+ lenses are on the last page. The descriptions leave something to be desired.
 
There was another thread where folks complained about how difficult it is to navigate KEH's new site. Honestly, I find the new site quite user friendly as I can search for an item from the home page or browse the various sections. I can also choose to view all the results in one page or have them spread across multiple pages.

Mark, in this case, what would have been easier to do would be to go to the home page and on the left, under "Advanced Search" select "Large Format" from the first drop-down list, then select "Fixed Focal Lengths" from the second drop-down list, and then type in either "210" or "300" (without the quotation marks) in the "Keyword Search" textbox (refer to the attachment). You can then choose to have all the results displayed in the same page, or across multiple pages (which is the default).

Hope this helps.

What sensajay says.

Perhaps you should complain to KEH about the navigational problems you've encountered as they seem responsive to the public and their customers.
