Nice lens, none on eBay right now, looks like you should pay up to $525 or so.
I have the 40mm version of this lens on my d800e. Excellent lens.

For 28mm I got used one of these use for about $600 but also hard to find.

Good luck.

Check with Steve Gandy... The "head bartender" of www.cameraquest.com. King of Voigtlanders and Voigtlander dealer. Steve also heads up Rangefinder.Com and their classifieds. That site somewhat more appropriate to your search. You've outclassed UHH a bit!

Or three plus 20mm on eBay right now for Nikon. Don't see any 28mm

Many thanks par4fore and kuzano, for your helpful and interesting comments. I talked with Stephen Gandy this morning and learned that the lens I want is discontinued, and that Camera Quest has sold out their stock. So, my chances of getting one aren't great. Not right now, anyway.
I have the 40/2.0 Ultron which I use on a D5300. Wonderful lens--and on that body makes a walk-around camera that is less conspicuous than my old Leica M2 with a 35mm Sumicron. But I long for a wider FOV than the resultant 60mm. The 28mm Skopar at 42mm FOV would have been perfect. I'm considering the Sigma 30/1.4 Art.
Thanks again
Bob

The 30 1.4 might be a good one. To me, 40mm-45mm focal length is the perfect compromise to the long time standard lens of 50mm and 35mm, Some great cameras were made with the 40mm (Leica CLE) and 42mm (Olympus 35 SP) lens. I love that 40/2.0 Ultron on my full frame body.
