Both the owner of the Cave is a wee bit off, me thinks! Off his rocker!

Those Jaegers lenses are very, very good! Also, there aren't too many out there to be had. I have had several and still have one and won't sell it unless I'm on the verge of living under a bridge! All things considered, that may not be too bad for an unused lens. Yes, D&G makes a very good lens. Quite comparable, really. Still, I'd put my Jaegers up against one of Barry's lenses any day. It would be a darned close contest, probably a tie. If one could get this lens for about $800.00 I'd jump on it. I'm just not in the market for it.

Steve, you are the Giant Lens Jaegers expert so this is a question for you and not a statement. Is there a difference between the old Jaegers, and the new stock Jaegers lens? Did any survive the fire? And the new stock lens are they from the original Japanese company they use to buy from or Chinese company? It would be nice to find out before buying, the ad says thr fire was 18yrs ago yet he says the lens is 15yrs-20yrs old and bought 13yrs ago from original owner, i am sure the lens is nice either way but is there a difference? I am not trying to shy anyone away from the lens i just want to protect all here from over spending. On the other hand if it is from before the fire it is a rare and great find. Basically ask questions and be sure of what you are purchasing.
