Hello everybody,
First time seller but long-time buyer. I have four cameras that I would like to sell to feed another addiction. In reality, the Canon A-1 was my childhood wish camera, but I have not used mine for a couple of years. It just does not fit my hand, and I prefer the Canon F-1 or the T90.
Anyway, I have 3 Canon A-1s and one Canon AE-1 Program (Let me know if you can access the pictures):
Canon A-1 Serial 171505 ($15 + shipping net to me)
This is an ugly duckling, and it has the famous A series squeak. All seals will have to be changed and although all functions seem to be working and the LED screen is working, I am not sure how accurate the shutter speeds are as I never bothered to test them. I would consider it a donor camera.

Canon A-1 Serial 2420219 ($120 + shipping net to me)
This camera is in excellent condition. It comes with a Motor Drive MA, a grip, eye cup, body cover, and original motor drive hole cover (which will be in the appropriate holder on the motor). Whatever you see in the pictures will be included. There are a couple of light scratches on the pentaprism cover which you can see in the pictures, and a slight indentation on the bottom plate above the “Canon Japan” engraving. Everything else is in excellent condition. All functions work as intended, the LED screen is working properly, and there is no squeak. The seals look all right to me. The motor drive is also in excellent condition, and all functions work as expected. The shutter speeds were checked with a Phochron XA a couple of years back, but I do not have access to it at this time so I cannot retest, they do sound good.

Canon A-1 Serial 2431652 ($100 + shipping net to me)
This camera is also in excellent condition. It comes with a winder, a grip, eye cup, body cover, and original motor drive hole cover (which will be in the appropriate holder on the winder). Whatever you see in the pictures will be included. There are a couple of light scratches on the bottom plate. All functions work as intended and the LED screen is working properly. No squeak. The seals look all right. The winder is also in excellent condition and all functions work appropriately. This camera shutter speeds were also tested and were accurate about two years ago, and they sound good.

Canon AE-1 Program Serial 3428697($40 + shipping to me)
This camera is not a looker. There are a couple of spots on the top plate where the silver has worn off. Will come with a winder, grip, body cover, and original motor drive hole cover (again, locate in the appropriate holder on the winder). WYSIWYG. All functions work as intended both on the camera and on the winder and although I did not test the speeds on this camera, they sound appropriate.
