Hyperions, ultima lx for £75?

[sunshine185]

Seems there its quite a few of the above mentioned ep's going on ebay, to me it looks like a good deal but am i missing something?

[Stephen]

Are they new or S/H?

Personally, I'd pay about £60-£70 for a S/H Hyperion, but then I am tight

[Stephen]

Oh they are auctions not buy it now - they probably won't sell at that price (unless you are lucky.)

I was watching a 21mm one and it finished at £75 with 0 bids... Wish I had the spare cash to bid on it

[Charon]

I am a Hyperion fan also, just keep an eye out for second hand ones, they normally fetch £60-65.

Those ultima lx are HUGE - they dwarf the hyperions and they are not small!

[SplintUK]

The £75 ones are "BNIB" apparently, not 2nd hand.

Looked on completed listings, and a few have sold for £75 and others have had no bids, the ultima lx is being sold as new, not s/h, think they are £130 ish to buy new.Was thinking if getting a x-cel lx for 69, might be worth considering an ultima tho.

I was looking at the 13mm but they are over 20 OZ which is twice as heavy as my other lens - double that of the nagler 13mm!

[Veracocha]

Yes, these are new and £75. I wish the seller had them when I was purchasing my set. Superb price for new Hyperions.

Sorry about showing my ignorance - what is "BNIB"

[John]

I think it means "Brand New In Box"

[SplintUK]

Gold star that man, it does indeed mean "brand new in box"

[Alan_B]

I've never seen an "Ultima" in the flesh , but if they dwarf Hyperions ???

How big are they

[sunshine185]

I have noticed that the hyperions are listed as "planelarium" a genuine mistake or something more sinister do you think?
