@letchhausen I noticed that a very slightly used Silver copy (looks like new and includes all original parts including caps, hood, box & data sheet paper) of Apollon appeared today at Mercari Japan:
The seller says he bought the last one from MKDirect and only tried it out just to test it but ended up buying another lens. Looks like the seller has 222 ratings with perfect score so appears to be a reliable one.
Mercari Japan is a popular Japanese site where people can sell their items to others. It's not an auction site so everything is sold at a fixed price set by seller and sellers can modify their asking price later on if the items are not selling at original asking price etc. I've never purchased from there personally so far but they often have some listings for MS-Optics lenses.
There are some proxy services that support purchasing overseas purchasing from Mercari, like this one:
