Hi Clive:

Such a list on f32 would be useful but I think that there's two prices 
for every old lens:

1) the price people are willing to pay to get it quickly, that is, the
    then current used price...

2) the then current ebay price, usually lower but sometimes higher.

Almost everything that anyone can think of is for sale on ebay.  If it 
isn't there when you do a search then it'll show up eventually.

I try to do a search on ebay before buying something, to get an idea as 
to how much to pay.

This is a similar list to the f32.net list at 
http://www.f32.net/Services/Equipment/Lenses/lensspecs.html and gives 
the new prices of various lenses in addition to a lot of specs. What is 
needed is a list of the current prices that old lenses fetch on the open 
market. I don't know of one, but if anyone is interested I would be glad 
to start to put one together for the web site.

The new site will have a completely revised lens list section that is 
database driven and relatively east to update.

Cheers,
