Looking for any of the above, I wont say no to an autocord too, not a fan of yashicamats for some reason.

Sorry, I don’t have one of these to sell, but I have owned them (pretty close, my Mamiya was a C330). Build quality, small size and weight, great ergonomics- the Rollei’s win hands down. But if you need interchangeable lenses, the only choice in a TLR is obviously the Mamiya. Both have great optics. Enjoy the journey!

Rolleicord should be a serious contender imo. I have owned almost all the major TLR lenses and my sample of the Xenar is only worse than the Planar/Mamiya at f5.6 and below, and every bit an equal to the Rokkor of the Autocord. The rolleicord is also the smallest, lightest, and mechanically the simplest.

+1 on the Rolleicord. It was the first Rollei I could afford, I think I paid $80 for the Va back in the ‘70’s. Later I churned through a lot of MF gear. None of them made better pictures than the ‘cord which I still enjoy using.

Ended up getting a rolleiflex, thank you for all the offers. I had the Rolleicord before too, a V(?). I liked using it, i believe there is a close up attachment for it, might have to dig that up and see if it will work on the flex i got.
