The funny thing about cameras purchased for decoration is that the owners end up selling them later on craigslist for 'old decoration' prices.
I picked up an Minolta 7sII from someone who had purchased it as a decoration originally and was getting rid of it. Turned out to be in 50% working condition... enough to combine with another 7sII to almost have a working camera.
How did they get hold of my FED 3b with the Zebra lens!? I just last evening got done fixing more shutter curtain pinholes with black photo tape. So mine is now probably worth at least $199...
