Change the currency on the web page to US$; it comes out at $701.05.

It's available on Amazon.com for "only" $536.00 + $11.49 shipping from
Slovakia or $499.00 at B&H.

Interesting that no focal length is quoted, but I understand it is
about 65mm. Also interesting that it stops down to f/32 by which
aperture the loss of acuity due to diffraction will be severe.

Designed in Japan but made in China so you won't like it, even though
the barrel and mount are metal.
