Want to Buy WTB: Aero Ektar 178mm f2.5 lens for upto $1000 / £800

[polaroid_memories]

Hi all,
Trying again to find a Kodak Aero Ektar 178mm f2.5 lens.

I have upper my offer to either £800, €850 or $1000 for a 'as close to mint' version of this lens.

A few conditions are...
1) all parts of the lens unscrew and fit back together without issue.
2) the iris has little to no visible deterioration.
3) any and all defects, even minor, be mentioned upfront.

I desperately need this lens for an upcoming project, and my current Aero is unrepairable.

Many thanks in advance.
