There is one on MPB in "Excellent" condition but the notes list:
"The internal optics have a small amount of moisture, but this doesn't affect functionality."
It may be a while before the secondhand market reflects these prices if they're closeout prices. But since they are technically on sale the SRP will stay as the baseline.
that said, i think i got my copy for much cheap out from olympus outlet years ago. i do think whomever pays 480 MSRP is out of their minds. IMHO the only regular prime olympus lense that worth 500 dollars is the 75m F1.8
I don't use it as much as I should (these days it is rare I grab the "real" camera, and almost always it is to shoot with a tele zoom), but it is a great looking lens in the portrait range.
At 90mm full frame equivalent, it is close to a standard 85mm portrait length for headshots or partial body. Can get good background blurring when you open it up and decent background compression when you stop it down (e.g. you want the mountains in the background to seem bigger).
For reference, it is a little longer than the 3X lens on a iphone 15 or earlier. Shorter than the 5x on the 16 pro (which I find annoyingly a little too long--portraits get a bit too flat).
