OK, this is your basic Box 'O Stuff that has to go as one unit to someone vastly more clever at repair than I which, let's be honest, isn't hard. Can you tighten a screw without stripping it? You're repair skills are way ahead of me!
Anyway, this stuff has gotta go and ALL THE MONEY YOU SEND ME goes to the Ogden, Utah, food bank. As per usual, I pay the shipping to you out of my own pocket. In effect, you make a donation to the food bank, I GIVE you these cameras.
Deal?
So, a Nikon FM that does not work. Why does it not work? Please see note above about my repair skills. The body is complete EXCEPT the rewind crank and shaft. Some guy in Europe needed one, I sent it to him because it was cheaper than sending the whole body. Rest of the body is here. Back is off so you can access the insides.
Nikon FE -- It does work on M90 speed, electronics are way beyond my pay grade. Body is complete.
Konica Autoreflex T -- hulking boat anchor of a camera -- it kinda works, I suspect it just needs a good run through the car wash and a little lube and it will be like new. Comes with 50 mm lens AND the inevitable 80-200 zoom everyone and his uncle bought with every camera sold back in the 70s.
So. If you send your $60 donation to my paypal (summicron12000@yahoo.com) I will carefully pack all this into a large flat rate box and whisk it to you via the kind and vastly under-appreciated offices of the United States Postal Service and cut a check to Catholic Community Services of Northern Utah. If there's room I'll throw in a strobe flash or two, whatever else is handy that fits. A real surprise box.
US sales only. Foreign, you also have to pay the shipping, which would be substantial.
Seriously, this helps the food bank, so if you wish to donate more please feel free. I promise, I will not cheat on this. I can provide references including the CCS development officer, Maresha Bosgieter, (801) 428-1230.
Questions? Charles Trentelman, email above, 801-394-0239 is my home phone. Leave a message. If it is not about my car warranty I will call back.
