RATING SCALE OPTICS: *Some brand new lenses may occasionally have a slight amount of micro dust visible inside the lens elements. This is a result of the manufacturing process and will not affect image quality or resolution. As a result, previously owned lenses like this one will generally exhibit the same consistence. Also, sometimes, some micro dust can be attracted to the glass surface, and it can be blown away. Microscopic Dust Level: 10/10: No dust or extraordinarily little if any. 9/10: A little amount being visible. 8/10: Some amount as expected for age, that will not affect any image quality. 7/10: Moderate amount, will not affect any image quality. 6/10: Normal amount as expected for age, that will not affect any image quality. 5/10 – 10/10: We do not carry any lens with this level. Difference between Scratch and Cleaning Marks on Glasses *Scratch on the Glass of a lens: You can feel when you gently run a fingernail across it. A scratch mark if it is deep enough may affect image quality. *Hairline/cleaning marks on the Glass of a lens: It is only on the coating and cannot be felt. They will not refract light and won’t affect any image quality.

ABOUT US Our eBay Store, “leicagreatbuy” and "Encore Camera " has been serving the market since 2003. We specialize high quality pre-owned Leica M and R lenses and have been receiving a spotless reputation with the highest ratings and 100% positive feedback. We provide excellent products to amateur and professional photographers as well as Video/Cinematographers within U.S. and in foreign countries. Since the item is not available for your physical inspection, it is our policy to offer you detailed descriptions of each item and up-load up to 12 photo images, taken from various angles. These photos are not altered nor modified by any means. Please take your time in reading the descriptions and examine the images carefully. Although we have tried to describe the item as accurately as possible, we might have missed something that may be important to you. Thus, you are highly encouraged to ask any questions before your final commitment to buy. For us to provide you with a sense of security and confidence, we inspect every item by taking following 3 steps. 1. Before we acquire an item, we ask a seller for detail descriptions in optical, cosmetic, and technical conditions if the seller’s descriptions are very brief and limited. 2. Upon receipt of an item, we carefully inspect the item to make sure that the item is in the same condition as described by a seller. 3. When the item is ready to be listed in our eBay store and our website, we again inspect the item to make sure that the item is ready to be listed with detail descriptions. The list price is determined based on the condition of the item. 4. When an item is sold and paid, we make a final inspection of the item to ensure that the item is in the same condition as we have described before packing. After a final inspection is made, we will prepare an invoice, which includes the final inspection report. NOTE: The focusing and aperture ring movement will be recorded to prove their proper functions, which will be used for our future reference in case a buyer claims the problems. If we find any discrepancies before packing the item, we will notify a buyer of discrepancies and offer you with the following options: 1. We will cancel your purchase and issue a full refund if you are no longer interested in the item. 2. We will offer you a replacement lens with equal or higher value if a buyer prefers to this option. RETURN POLICY The return policy set forth by eBay in 2018 states that certain product categories have unique retail standards and that sellers will be able to offer variations on the new return policy options. Our products are in the category of CAMERAS & PHOTO, and they are included in unique retail standards. Since an item is previously used and sold as is, there may be minor discrepancies or oversight in description. We offer 30 days and Free Return except conditions stated below. The followings are excluded from FREE RETURN. 1. You falsely report an item is not what is described or damaged, so you can claim a partial or a full refund. Frequent claims for focusing and/or aperture ring damages could have been caused due to the improper handling when you hold the focusing or aperture ring to insert an adapter to your digital camera. We will not offer a return or a partial refund. Just this is a reminder that the repair fees for focusing and/or aperture ring will be between $250-$300 USD. There is no other reason why a focusing or aperture rings is not working other than the mishandling as stated in the beginning of the statement described above. WARNING: If you plan to use this lens on your DSLR camera, your extra caution is required. Hold the lens barrel, not FOCUSING RING or APERTURE RING while you try to attach it to an adapter or to your camera mount, otherwise the FOCUSING or APERTURE RING might be snapped off or disengaged from the mechanism, resulting in damage. The repair cost for this damage may cost you about $250.00. Please note that you are responsible for the damage repair if this happens. The condition of the focusing ring you have purchased is clearly described as being in working condition when the lens is listed. Then, again we will make a final inspection when we are ready to pack the lens. I, the owner of this store, will personally certify that the focus and aperture rings are in working condition in the invoice which will be included in the package. Therefore, we will not accept a return of the lens due to the damage caused by careless handling even though you may claim you have not held the focus ring when attaching the lens to your camera or to an adapter. NOTE: Prior to packing a lens, the focusing and aperture ring movement is being recorded to show both focus and aperture rings are in working condition. The video recording will be provided to eBay customer service should a buyer claim for a defective focusing/aperture ring. 2. You buy an item to use it and requests for a return. 30 Days Free return does not mean you can use the item for 30 days. You should let us know immediately after you receive the item and inspect it. 3. You claim for something not offered in the original listing. 4. You simply changes your mind, do not like the item, or find another identical item which is less expensive than what you have paid. If you claim a full or partial refund with any of these exclusions which are stated in Item 1 through Item 4 above, we are entitled to deduct some amount or percentage from the purchase price. The amount of deduction is determined depending on what type of exclusion stated above. The eBay Money Back Guarantee is designed to protect both buyers and sellers. If eBay decides that either buyer or seller abuses the return system which eBay has established, both buyer or seller may be subject to a range of actions, including limits on buying and selling privileges and account suspension. Your understanding and acceptance of our RETURN POLICY is greatly appreciated. If you feel our return policy is not acceptable to you, please do not proceed your purchase commitment to avoid unnecessary time and extra expenses to both of us.
