I hope the new owner actually makes photos with it - I'm sure that's possible without risking its perceived value. If it were me, I'd send it to Youxin for a CLA

When you spend millions of Euros on a camera, you don't send it to Youxin Ye for a CLA. You fly him to your house to do the CLA Then you shoot a roll of Kodachrome and buy a lab to develop it.
