The price is way out of my league anyway but even if I had the $$$ I might consider something else...

Yep. That's wayyy out of my league. But it IS in operating condition...

DanielStone · Mar 9, 2012

and that's all that matters

my $9.99 thrift store nikon F3 +50mm 1.4 is probably a better hammer/"beat down the bad guy" weapon anyhow, no single-use tools in my arsenal !

maybe I'm missing something here. It's a black leica MP with a leicavit -- very pretty, but $70K?

Very pretty, but in my age bracket I prefer something I can use.

It also has a body cap.

It also cost one million. It's unique because it's so expensive which is because it's unique. Kinda like Edie Sedgwick or Paris Hilton.

I'd be frightened to take it out and use it, and it makes me wonder what sort of person would buy it.

No strap? No case? I'll pass.

narsuitus · Mar 9, 2012

Seems overpriced to me. There is a Leica MP LHSA Special Edition hammertone with the Leicavit MP and a Summicron-M 35mm/2 ASPH on eBay for only $12,880 US.

Someone with quite a lot of money and a very small penis. Your typical Leicaphool, in other words.

A Nikon F3 and 50mm for $10?! Why can't I ever find deals like that.

Wade D · Mar 10, 2012

Ouch! I paid half that for my 1st house.

mopar_guy · Mar 10, 2012

Right now somebody is starving or dieing for lack of medical care.

summicron1 · Mar 10, 2012

i have a IIIF rd st, with an abrahamson winder on it -- just as serviceable, one 100th the price.

The sort of person who won't be using it for it's intended use.

j-dogg · Mar 11, 2012

Who the hell pays anything more than 1000 for a 35mm still camera, I mean really. 250 is a bit much I could justify 1000 or more for something larger format.

laymonk777 · Mar 11, 2012

I would buy it. Use the heck out of it! You know. Get some real use marks on it, gently of course then take pictures and send them back to the seller as well as post them here for your enjoyment. Something this cool should not be sitting in a glass case, regardless of how much it costs. I'll pay 700 usd. LOL.
