Towing the party line.
Sorry, the cheapest Mk3s, with even semi working focus, are going for around 2300+. So unless it was hot off the back of the truck, you didn't.

edit: Or someone was helmet wearing special. Hell I saw one go with a block shutter for 1700 recently. Cost to replace a shutter is around $350.

Also, the AF on the mk3 is abysmal compared to a mk2 (I had had both).

And lying to any of you would benefit me how??
bragging rights of scoring such a good deal? ego gratification like that is what fuels the intarwebs.

seriously, just a quick scan of POTN and FredMiranda show that the typical price is 2300, not less than half that.
