Its been awhile so why not try again. Will pay top dollar. Read: $100. Must be in pristine condition. Will trade my 50 1.8 ver 1 box aplus dollars if that floats your boat

There are obsessions, and then their are obsessions that reach deep into the soul. Fortunately mine are slight.
John if it will make you feel any better I looked for your box in Hong Kong a couple of weeks ago in shops that specialize in used/older equipment. No empty boxes of the type you want. But if you want an FD 85 1.2 I know where two of them are waiting.
Thanks but only a 1.0 box will do. I will mount it in a glass case along with my 50 1.8 VERSION 1!!! box (try finding one of those babies) and put it on display in my office.
A modest $5 admission fee will be assessed to defray acquisition expenses.
I have a mint condition 50/1.0L box with original packaging which I would be willing to part with for $4,444.44 plus shipping.
Heck, I'll even throw in a free 50/1.0L lens if you want it... or a 50/1.8 if you fancy that instead. Personally I recommend you go with the free 50/1.8 option since it's easier to carry.
