S3D Offers for Steinheil WA adapter?



I posted this in photo-3d:
------
An elderly member of our club is interested in selling a Steinheil
set of Wide Angle lenses for the Realist.  Upon cleaning the lenses
I noticed that the back lenses (the ones closest to the camera lenses)
are not perfectly clean but appear to have a slight haze in the 
inside.  Questions:

1. Is this the infamous Steinheil fungus? (somehow I doubt it)
2. Does that affect the image quality?  (my guess is that this
   could have an effect only in shots with a light source in 
   the image area)
------

This lady would like to sell the adapter.  It comes with instructions
but no case.  Is there anyone here willing to entertain an offer, with 
the condition noted above?  I think it is fair to give one month to
try the adapter and return it if the haze is found to be a problem.
Also, please note that these adapters are reported to work well only
with a Realist 2.8 camera, not the 3.5.

(I cannot accept any offer... I can only pass these offers to
the ownder and let her decide)
