The current International Price Guide (IPG) says USD 100. They sell in
Germany for DM 600 to DM 800, about USD 350 to 470.
>[Lot 3] 35mm Sumaron s/m 1179926 w/finder. Good user - same as Hektor.

finder ? Do you mean the goggles (for use with the M3) ?
3.5/ 35 Summaron (M3), IPG: USD 300, Germany DM 750 (USD 440).
2.8/ 35 Summaron (M3), IPG: USD 400, Germany DM 750 (USD 440).
The M2 Summarons (without goggles) rate USD 100 higher/ more.

IPG: USD 400, Germany: not seen during the last 25 years.

There are 3 different versions.
1.5/ 85 Summarex, black, IPG: USD 4.000.
1.5/ 85 Summarex, black, with hood & caps, IPG: USD 5.000.
1.5/ 85 Summarex, chrome, IPG: USD 1.250.
chrome with hood and caps, IPG: USD 1.500.
The IPG prices are for "used" condition (C). Ex++ to mint minus =
_plus_ 50 to 100 percent.
