I got weak knees last Thursday when I saw a Leitz reproduction of the Urleica from the 1970s on a local dealer's shelf. It was offered for €2,000, which was a deal, really! I tripped the shutter once, and it was buttery smooth and nearly silent. It's still available with a 50mm f/3.5 Anastigmat.
 
Wasn't aware of an Ur-Leica repro, but I've sometimes thought to pick up a 0-series camera #10500, which IIRC was the fully functional one produced around the year 2000. Shutter isn't self-capping though.
 
nd this time, I don't want to end up in the poorhouse again.

I think you misspelled that Ralph.
