Let's run this as an APUG benefit auction. Here are the rules. We will leave the camera up for sale until 10PM Eastern US time on Sunday July 24th. If you are interested in it just post a response with your 'bid'. Opening bid is $2 just to keep it interesting. Minimum advance is $1. Bids must be time stamped 10:00 PM or earlier on the 24th. Good luck! Just post if any questions. Actual shipping costs will be in addition to the hammer price, but they will be modest of course since this is a relative lightweight. Funds will be payable directly to APUG through the 'make a donation' link.
Now, to the camera itself. Certainly this is one of the finer No. 2's left on the planet. It looks much better than the pictures. My digimeter is making it look greyed or weathered but in fact it is jet black and lovely. And just have a gander at that lavishly tooled leather! Takes honest-to-gosh 120 film and makes 6x9 negs to boot. Shutter is right on and bulb is working just as uncle George intended. Add your favorite 120 and go. These can be quite trippy with color film as well, so don't feel limited to monochrome. Bid high and... enjoy!!
Best,
Jon
