For Sale FS: Saunders LPL Super Dichroic 4500 II VCCE enlarger w/ carriers

[bjsmith7474]

Selling an enlarger I'm simply not using.

It's quite big, so I'd prefer someone come pick it up. I'm in Northern Virginia, so I'm pretty central to everything on the East Coast.

Saunders LPL Super Dichroic 4500 II VCCE enlarger. $750

Great shape overall, with clean head and unmarked baseboard. Just needs a new lamp, which are readily available.

Comes complete with hard to find VCCE head, chassis, baseboard, and power supply. Plus, I'm including two LPL carriers; a 35mm and a glass 4x5 carrier.

Feel free to ask questions.

Maybe the best enlarger ever made. If I was within 300 miles of you I'd probably jump in the car and come get it!

I turned one of those down for $200 before I decided to pursue a dark room. I feel pretty dumb about that now.

This is a great deal.

I bought one last year and paid quite a bit more...

The VCCE head seems to be more difficult to find.

One other little sweetener for everyone!

I'll also include the Saunders / LPL negative masking attachment. With this and 4x5 glass carrier I've already included you can do virtually any film format. Also, this usually would be about $100 by itself, so a great deal is even better.

bump…thanks!

Just curious because I can't afford it, but is there a glassless 4x5 carrier available? I know a glass carrier is superior for flatness but the idea of keeping four more surfaces dust free would be...challenging. The masking unit would be great for tinkering with odd formats though!

Yup….plenty of glassless carriers made by LPL also.

Roger, when I used a glass carrier, I simply swabbed with dry PecPads. No dust!

and photos…sorry for the delay.

Is this still available?

If you care to split out the 4x5 glass carrier and mask I'm down to take that off your hands.

I know it’s been a while, but is this still available?

Looking at the OP's page, it seems he's only made about two posts in the last two months.

I would therefore recommend that you try PM'ing him.
