I recently acquired a brand new in box 50/1.2 for $500 AU (ie $250
US) and its a fantastic lens even to 'behold'. I think you're right
about the price on this one being represented low in Skip's older
e*ay data. I made one failed attempt at getting one of these from
Cameta camera that 'overlooked' a fungus farm 50/1.2; they had
priced it at $299 US. I sent it back and lost a one way shipping
fee. They are a rarish lens and I think the price you got it for was
in line with others I've seen.
I was very lucky to get mine for what I did. And the joy of
unpacking a new Zuiko... can't be described. The box, the plastic,
the foam, the mint lens caps... nothing comes close :)

Where, oh tell me where, did you get it. It's $450 new in Sweden.
