Just tried the good as new NX20, and then I see one NX300 for $ 200. With the 18-55 AND the 45! Must be a really good price? Mostly after the 45mm, but difficult to find alone.

You get the camera and the 18-55 for free, and you pay for the 45mm. Great deal. The 45mm is proba ly my favorite NX lens, what a pity it ain't stabilized.

Also thought it was a good deal. Can sell my NX10 with the 18-55, if anybody is buying here (seems like everybody are selling!) Have read a lot of reviews about the 45 mm, and like what I see. The seller is a woman into fashion buying another camera system.

Re: NX300

It was sold but the ad was not removed. I was too slow. Maybe I should not tell about the cheap NX here before I buy, hmmmm... But 85 mm for $400? I think it will come down, would go for 250.

This is not a 250$ lens, and it won't be available at that price any soon. Maybe in a year or two.

OK. The same seller has 50-150 2.8 for $600. More useful. But rather large and heavy lenses. Best for NX1? Guess I will search for the 60 and 45.

"They all want to sell". Now NX500 with 2 "short" + "long" zoom lenses, and a 45mm 1.8 2D/3D and extra battery. For $500. Got NX500 and the two lenses, but the 45 could be nice! Much more useful in the dark than the 30mm. So how good is it, and what is it worth? Maybe offer 120....

The 45 is excellent. Sharper than the 30 and faster AF, top lens. Fits the 500 nicely size-wise. Get it if you can for 120. I sold mine couple months ago close to 200.

For NX30 give it some time. There are good ones appearing on ebay (uk mostly) which sell around 100gbp. Since you have the NX500 now you can wait till the opportunity appears.

Thanks! I can try for the 45, he can still sell the rest as a "package". Do not know who to buy from on the net, but that maybe the only way to get NX30. Shame I did not get it new for $350 in 2015... Maybe there should be a separate discussion about the price level of all NX cameras and lenses?

Told the seller I only wanted the 45, and then he discovered what it was worth. Well, he said it was sold for $600 and more, I said that's what people WANT for it. In the end paid $270, guess it's worth it. In top condition and can't see any faults and very fine results after some images on the way home.
