I have a Beseler 38mm f/4.5 Wide Angle. This one is new in box.

I see one on eBay for $99.99 plus shipping. I've read varying opinions regarding image quality but haven't the experience with it to know one way or the other. The one on eBay doesn't come with a retaining ring.

How does $85 shipped and including a retaining ring sound?

I have a focotar 40s, f 2.8 that came with the Leica Focomat V35. I see you are located in the US, so shipping would be anywhere from 25 to 30 bucks.... I see the prices on ebay for the lens are around 200 euros (250 bucks). You could have the lens for 100 euros plus shipping (total 120 euros?).

another option is wall-mount it and use a baseboard that can be lowered, but I guess that might qualify as taking the enlarger apart. ;-)
