Want to Buy WTB - Pentax 67 6x7 Kirk BL-6x7II L-Bracket

Trader history for Collin Orthner (0)

Do you have a budget in mind?
 
I have no idea what they sold for and have not seen one on eBay, so I'm flying blind here. If you have one let me know what you need from it and we can go from there.
 
Last one sold for around $700 USD. That’s why I was wondering if you had a budget in mind. I sold one for $550 several years ago and regretted so I bought another one but now I’m using my Mamiya 7 more.
 
Yeah unfortunately those are super rare. I’m looking for one for my Mamiya 7 but don’t want to pay what they ask for those now. You just can’t find them now
 
Seems a bit odd that Kirk wouldn't bring this one back, or the one for your camera, with the popularity of these cameras now! I should have bought the Kirk way back when they were producing it I guess!
 
People have asked over the years and Kirk said that if there was enough demand they’ll consider a run for the Mamiya 7/7II camera but it never materialized. Names were taken but nothing
 
I've had it as a search on ebay for about 5 years, and in that time a total of two were listed. IIRC the first one sold for about $550, and a few years later as @Dani stated the second one went for about $700, which to me is a bit obscene. I'd love if they brought it back, and would happily pay $200 or so for one, but I'm not expecting it.
 
Hey Collin, a cheaper and available option is to go with the Kirk Camera Plate for the P67 and also their ‘Universal Tall L-Bracket’. I have this combo and it works great. Also nice that you can ditch the L-bracket and just use the plate at times.

I made my own, even stronger, out of a four dollar stainless steel L-bracket from Sagatsune, plus the cost of the drill bits and threading taps, and any quick-release plate involved - under $40 total. Helps to have a drill press.
 
Of course you did! You’re the Chuck Norris of film photography!
 
Chuck Norris makes way more money than me. I had no choice. And actually, both the bracket and drill press were given to me for free. But I've made L-brackets like these before, including for both smaller and much bigger cameras.
 
Sold mine a few years ago for $550 on ebay (japanese buyer). Sold a mamiya one for $650 a few months ago. They are all very rare.
