For Sale FS Mamiya C22 TLR with 65mm f3.5 Wide Angle Lens, Frozen Shutter - $45 OBO

[dachyagel]

Another unfinished project that must find a new home! I'm pretty sure that this is a C22 -- I know it isn't a Mamiyaflex -- and it does have the 65mm wide angle f3.5 lens attached, HOWEVER, the shutter is FROZEN and the cocking lever for the shutter has BROKEN OFF.

The lenses for these Mamiya TLRs are pretty cheap and easy to come by, and a CLA shouldn't cost more than $125 (I think you could do it for less if you shopped around). Note that ALL of the Mamiya TLR lenses will work in this body.

Overall, the body is in decent condition, but there is some paint loss and a touch of rust in the hood. Everything functions as it should, but I haven't run film through it; the back looks good, and it is clean, but it could use new seals. Bellows look good.

As for the 65mm lens, there are some cleaning marks on the taking lens but no fungus, haze, etc; there are scratches on the viewing lens.

Asking $45 for this or your best offer, plus $12 shipping.

Open to offers on this, as stated above.

You wouldn't happen to be an American, would you?

 

[dachyagel]

Yes.

No magnifier in the hood, but the hood does function properly (it has the sport finder, fold down type). There is rust, but no part is rusted through.

This site is based in New Zealand. Would your shipping cost be within New Zealand?

Ten years ago plus one day, over a hundred Canadians died in New York City and Pennsylvania. Halifax, Nova Scotia, received 47 planes and 7,000 passengers with open arms when the USA in a moment of fear and confusion didn't know where to put their airborne flights. All other Canadian cities, such as Gander, Newfoundland, who were asked never hesitated accepting Americans into their homes and hearts on that day.

It would be a little kindness if more Americans did not assume that their country is the only one that counts. I have no wish to single you out, since it is remarkable how many Americans will post for sale notices with no location given, no location given in their side info, and no location given in their profile.

Forgive me, yes, I should have said $12 within the continental US. I would be happy to calculate the shipping cost for New Zealand if you would like to PM me -- thanks.

 

[Monito]

You are completely forgiven, and I will hope you forgive me for taking this opportunity to write as I did.

 

[dachyagel]

How about $40 + $10 shipping within the continental US for this??
