After looking around nearly everywhere, I'm absolutely stumped as to where I can find a set of used 18-85 Zeiss Super Speed Mkll primes.
Does anyone know of a shop that has some in stock?

Check out Visual Products...

Don't know price though.
they are in high demand .. as you can see there is no supply ...
the 35mm adaptors for 2/3" ccd camera's took care of the supply ...the fall of the US $$ has caused price to go up 40% over past 4-5 years ...
now with 1000+ REDs reserved and at least 30-40% of those looking for lens = short supply = price is going to go UP on any sets that do get listed for sale ..
IMO anybody that list a place that has a set - figure at least 25-50 persons will call about the set ...
i've been looking since last June ... have come across standard zeiss T2.1's ..
even zeiss 16mm super speeds are hard to find ....
i would think that a lens manufacturer would see some opportunity here ?
also the SI2k camera uses a PL mount ... so who's going to step up and gives some prime lens that do not cost 16k each ?
visual products has had that set listed for months ( they didn't have a set june- nov but still had them listed) ....
Donatello is right on. GOOD LUCK trying to get super speeds.
Just a heads up, over the last year, just for our P+S Technik Mini35's, we've bought up every set we could find and that's not many - and we've paid top dollar for them. We may end up selling one of our sets in the next few weeks, but there really aren't any on the market right now.
T2.1's if you're lucky. Rarely, but a few T1.9's. Or, if you can afford 'em Cooke's and Master Prime's :)
Visual Products is a good company, but they don't have those T1.3's right now.
