raphael_gray Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I've found an Austrian dealer who is currently selling a Leica M7 Titanium for ?110 plus shipping. The item appears to be in perfect condition too. I know that these cameras are worth thousands, so is this deal suspicious in any way? He sells via ebay, I'll send you his name if you would like it. Oh yes, are M7s better than M6s in any way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brambor Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 A leica M7 for 110 questionmarks or for $110 ? Do a search for completed items on Leica M7, write down the final amounts and then calculate your average price. That's your answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_.1 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 If it seems to good to be true...plus, there was a thread on this chick a few days ago. sumtin-fischen right? From Austria but item location in China? Why would someone with a mint M7 let it go for a 100 bucks? When they could easily get 2 thou for it? Your question about M7 vs. M6- well ... well oh well...

nicolas_douez Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 You're outdated, the M7 now sells for $48.00 with a Tri-Elmar as a free bonus. <p>It's a <b><a href=http://cgi.ebay.com/Leica-M7-0-72-35mm-Rangefinder-Black-Camera_W0QQitemZ7554105770QQcategoryZ38612QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem>special camera</a></b>, sold by an Austrian guy who speaks English and lives in China.

nicolas_douez Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Maybe some of us should tell that bronko_something whose hobby seems to be buying pop music records, not selling Leicas, that his ebay account has been hacked, as for a charity act.

roy_lahay Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 The ? is most likely meant to be a number such as 2, 3 or 4 and in euros. E-mail him and ask for his address and phone number, and then see if he's even listed in the phone book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny massey Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Shame that bronko ronkoson only accepts bank wire transfer or Western Union transfer, I was so looking forward to buying a 0.85 MP for 48 euros! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCL Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Raphael - you buy it for the stated price, call me upon delivery, and I'll offer you an extra $110 USD.....you'll have a great profit.............hahaha. Let's see, M7 comes after M6...might it be better in any way???? Let's ask Mr. Leica!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob F. Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Used M7's have been going on eBay for about $1900 to upwards of $2000. They go for $2200 or more if they are like new with packaging, papers, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprouty Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 There are people in this world who would pay an extra $300 for a cardboard box? It boggles the mind... <P> yet somehow I know you must be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
