Selling a 35mm Konica Auto-Reflex. This one is labelled "Revue", which I believe was for the German market. It's the same camera as the Autorex, and is notable for its ability to shoot both full-frame and half-frame, and change formats mid-roll. There's a selector switch on the top plate for frame size. The lens is the standard Konica 52mm f1.8.

The good:

1. Lens and viewfinder are clear.
2. Shutter and film advance work.
3. Clean cosmetically.

The bad:

1. The fork on the take-up crank is broken off and long-gone. This means there's no way to rewind a roll in the camera. You'd have to rewind in a dark room or bag. Or find a new fork and install it.
2. The built-in meter appears to be dead. It might be possible to revive it with a new battery and some cleaning of contacts, but I haven't bothered to try, so assume it's dead.

It's still usable, with the above caveats, or it can be used for parts. Sold as-is.

Asking $50 + shipping.

I've always wanted this one and given the current prices, you're practically giving it for free. Good luck with sale!!!
