Y's is a small Japanese brand that is not well known outside Japan. They make high quality 4x5 field cameras.
This particular camera is in excellent, almost unused condition.
It has more movements than most Japanese cameras:
Front rise, fall, shift, tilt and swing
Back tilt and swing
Front and rear geared focusing
The bellows extends from 55mm to 300mm. It uses Linhof type lens boards. Unlike most wooden cameras, the camera has a Graflok back, so you can use roll film holders as well. The weight is only 1.5 kilos, making it eminently suitable for hiking. The front standard is detached from the base for storage.

Price: 67,500 JPY / ~594 USD, including worldwide shipping via JapanPost EMS or courier. Payment is in Japanese Yen, payable via Paypal invoice or bank transfer either directly or through through Wise (wise dot com, which may work out cheaper for you).
If you are buying from me for the first time, please give me your full name, Paypal email, verified street address and phone number and I will send you an invoice. If you would like to use the bank or Wise (wise dot com), please give me this information, and I will send you an invoice and instructions for making the transfer.
Thanks for looking,
