Purchased two years ago from Koh's Camera for $1890 and have used it happily since. I have absolutely no complaints about the camera, I'm just selling because I'm retiring indefinitely from shooting film.
Includes the camera, a generic body cap, the included nylon strap, 2 batteries, some hodgepodge box/packaging that came with it, and the receipt from Koh's Camera. Some of the pictures show the camera with a leather strap; this is not included.
Function is perfect; speeds and meter are accurate, and the horizontal and vertical alignment of the rangefinder are perfect. No light leaks (unless you take off the lens and expose the shutter to bright sunlight; this is normal for Leicas). I have been shooting slides, color negatives, and silver all with excellent results.
Cosmetically, the two most noteworthy things are (1) the bottom plate has the plastic removed and shows lots of abrasions. They don't photograph well, so assume there is more wear than you can see. (2) there is a lot of dust trapped behind the top plate glass and the viewfinder in the back, which I've pictured below. It doesn't affect the viewfinder but it might bother some so please note it. I think cleaning it out would require removal of the top plate.
In addition, there are a few nicks here and there around the camera but it overall looks very clean. There is no paint loss except on the battery cover, and no leatherette loss or leatherette peeling/bubbling. Also, there is NO zinc bubbling that is a common issue plaguing M6's.
Shipping is included but you are responsible for PayPal fees if you don't want to use gift.
Local pickup available in SF Bay Area until July 27th; local pickup in LA thereafter. |
