Picked this up yesterday along with an 8X10 Deardorf. It seems fiddly to operate but others may not. Any idea of a fair price to ask for? It has a new bellows.

It's extremely hard to price these other than as a "project" camera. No one is going to know or have an idea how well it actually works as-is. The one critical measurement of any LF camera (and more so the larger the format) is the ground glass / film holder "T-Distance". Not having holders with the camera means the user is going to have to figure out which kind of 11x14 film holder it was made for. It's quite possible this one uses homebrew film holders which would be hard for someone to duplicate etc.
