For Sale FS:SOLD Leica 1A Black Paint with brassy patina just serviced by Mr. Ye

[rknewcomb]

Hello, its back up for sale. Maybe someone will buy this beauty so I can quit thinking about it.
Here is a lovely Black paint Leica 1A with its natural brass patina. Just back from a Mr Ye cla service on the body and lens including new shutter curtains. Smooth and working. The lens focus is like butter. He also cleaned the lens glass inside.
I'm including an after market case so it can have a carrying strap. Also included is a replica of the correct lens hood. Sorry, I can't find the lens cap but will ship with something over the lens to protect it.
I have been a member here for many years and bought and sold a few items here. Although I have not sold much on the auction site in the last year or so if you look up rknewcomb seller feedback I have 100% positive feedback over many sales.
Price lowered to $799 I'll pay the Paypal fees and ship to your door in the USA. Non USA please check with me and we'll see.
Thank you,
Robert

You are obviously conflicted. Let me help:
If you sell this you will regret it to your dying day. Is a lifetime of regret worth a measly $800 that you will probably piss away on bad movies and mediocre food?

No.

Now go take some pictures.
