Need advice on lens price.

[Henry Perkins]

I am looking at a Fujinon 250 W 6.3. The asking price is $625. Is this a reasonable price for this lens with Copal 1 shutter?

I got this same lens (with lettering on outside of barrel, i.e. NW) from KEH (last year) for half this.

I bought mine from Keh about 3 years ago, silver ring Copal shutter (so a bit older than black ring) for about $300 if I remember. I agree with Tony, that price seems a bit high for the W 6.3. New, it's going for $1329 from Badger, so maybe prices have gone up significantly in the last year.
