That's a lot money for a couple of extra f/stops... maybe there is something we don't know?
Well, let's see...
First, there's Ebay and Paypal fees, then there's the Linhof and Schneider names. Xenotars are similar to Planars which command a higher price over several other lenses in the same focal lengths. Then there's the f2.8 aperture. Nice, but hmmm..... my math doesn't add up to $38k worth of lens either.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

It's not the lens - it's the cache. Just think of how the girls will flip for this lens. I bet even Angelina Jolie would want you!
Wow, that is scary...
There are obviously at least two people who think it is worth that sort of money.
I am just not one of them, given the information provide...
Hey that's pretty good considering the starting price was $9.00.
Well, it DOES come with a Linhof board. I suspect that the last bidder left out a "." !
Kirk, OMG NO!!
You're not trying to raise that other thread to the top of the list again??!!!
It only has 300 replies to it...
If you look at the bids and the timing of the bids, it looks like a bidding war which got totaly out of control.
Besides that, it is the first authentic late series Xenotar with a original Copal 3
shutter I have seen.
All the other Xenotars with Copal 3 shuters I have seen have had all black shutters and have
been converted (based on serialnumbers) from Compur 2 shutters.

I think the bidders are a bit sick just my opinion!
