The recent lens on ebay sold (Oct 28 2012) for $244.35 US after 20 bids; so still a demand for this lens.

This one seems a reasonable alternative, I was told: http://www.ebay.com/itm/271067071048 .
For 1/10th of the price the last JML (previous post) went, it's worth to try.

I see that the seller has put his price up by 2 pounds.

Why concern yourself with tiny fluctuations in price when it does this?

I suppose its all a matter of market forces in action.
I'd better buy a lens now while they are still affordable and avaliable.

I believe the JML initially went for $10 a pop. Now it goes for over $200!

I think the JML 21 mm above this 20 mm lens. Can someone post a picture at 100%? I remember that the JML 21 had between 400 and 500 bpm and it covers an area greater than 18 mm. Taking the JML 21 I think buying this is no improvement. See if anyone has compared.
