Want to Buy WTB Nikon N90 body

[daleeman]

Looking for a clean functional nikon N90 camera body. Bunches on KEH and ebay but a good Apuger gets first op to sell.

Do you need a lens as well? I have a body but not a lens

 

[mgb74]

And are you looking specifically for the N90 or N90s? Or either?

 

[daleeman]

Body only, I've been told the 90S has spot metering and that might be a nice feature to have. So that is my first preference. I see Used-Retail E+ on a 90S is $ 89 at KEH, so I imagine I will guage down from there, hate to go to EvilBay to find one.

Dale;

No affiliation with seller but there is a nice looking N90s in the Rangefinder Classifieds (Rangefinderforum.com) Selling for $90 from a RFF member with a good reputation.

Good luck
Paul

Thanks Paul, I'll pop over there and take a look.

I bought my N90s from KEH about a year ago for $29, BGN rated. For the life of me, I cannot find a thing wrong with it. Not a scratch or blemish. Everything works like new. I've said before, my take would be that this was a camera shop display model, and I mean a real camera shop, not Best Buy where people abuse the displays. The only "fault" I could mention was that it came without a body cap.

I would not hesitate to buy another one of these $29 dollar bodies - still available.

I have an N90 that works; except I don't know if the pop-up flash fires or not.

$20 + shipping

Dang. That is cheap.

I also snagged an N90s from KEH in bgn condition a while back. $19 for an N90s that was "engraved". Turns out the engraving was actually just a sticker, which peeled off nicely. Works perfectly and doesn't look too shabby either. My father-in-law, who bought this camera new in the '90s, nearly cried when I told him.

 

[daleeman]

Thank you all for the bids and PMs. Winning price with shipping was $ 38.00, no grip but hopefully great condition.

Now lets see if I can withhold the need to move up to an F4 or 5 this year.

IIRC, the N90(s) was in the US$1300 price range when introduced.

For me I was amazed to pay 1/34th of new.

I have to shake my head and wonder.
