Long story short, got this camera in October, got it CLA'd right after by Wizcam on eBay ($250) who is the primary independent repair person for these. It was already in great condition as is, but given the price of these I figured a CLA was in order. Honestly I really only shot two rolls on it, and am more so selling it out of need for some funds for some things that came up this winter.
This camera is in overall excellent condition, the meter works amazing, shutter speeds are perfect, viewfinder looks good, and the bellows look incredible. I am pretty sure I am only the second owner of this camera, at least judged by condition. There is an area on the back however where it looks like the original owner had whatever dealer they got this from, glue a film tab holder on the door, which after however many decades deteriorated the paint underneath it, so this is the only thing I can really knock this camera for. It did bother me, so I cleaned up the glue and the gross paint, and then used acetate cloth electrical tape to cover the spot, and then used some 3M VHB tape to adhere the film tab holder back on. This can be painted very easily, the door comes off with two screws, but I just don't have the time right now. Essentially, this is a functionally impeccable camera, and just short of a perfect one cosmetically.
I am looking to get $2150 Shipped & Insured PayPal G&S or $2050 Shipped & Insured F&F.
Please let me know if you have any questions or offers, I'm sure I have an answer!
