97% mint lens (glass parts missing) for $199!
110873396281 to see a Goerz lens listed as Mint in Case. The only problem is it appears the elements are missing. An amazing Goerz "UnkTar" of "unk" focal length!
His ad has been rewritten, but originally said, "If anyone can tell me what this is worth I'd appreciate it...so I don't ask too little..." I wrote and said if it's indeed missing the glass, it's worth about 20 bucks for the case or parts. He wrote back, "yeah, right." Caveat Emptor.

I think it is worth considerably less than $20... personally speaking.

If it has no glass, can it be called a "lens?"

Good point. Someone should buy it, then tell paypal to withhold funds because you were misled!

Not a mark on the glass. It looks to be in really good shape, for the age :)

World's biggest Pinhole lens?
Re: 97% mint lens (glass parts missing) for $199!
The lens is described as "used".
Used as a source for cells, now mounted in a nice shutter somewhere.

Whoever that person is, they've bid 756 times on cameras and lenses the past 30 days. He better be paying attention.
