I cannot tell a lie. I have contributed to the problem.

I recently purchased two manual Minolta lenses—like-new, 50mm 1.4 MD for ~$100 from an online dealer, and a 135mm f3.5 locally for $30. Even though i'm in the northeast U.S., no doubt this has contributed to the problem, what with the "global economy" and all.

Here in Canada, I recently purchased a oldish 50/1.4 PG Minolta MC for $50, and a pristine Minolta 135/3.5 for $100, locally. Similar story, same lenses, but what does mean?  BUY LOCALLY, don't support the big rip-off internet retailers where prices may be artificially high and you can become a victim of  scams.
