<p>finally got the rollei on my hand.<br>

the cosmetic is good. the lens is clear if you see it from outside. but there's definitely some fungus in it. i hope i can get a good service place to clean the fungus.<br>

<p>@chuck<br>

i will!! it'll be on my hand in 2 days the soonest!<br>

@lauren<br>

lol! i get these "don't be hasty" advices from people on getting the rolleiflex.. but i just can't help being hasty this time...</p>

<p>i told someone to get the rollei for me. should get it by this week. wish me luck!<br>

no fungus and scratches as far as i concern. i hope there will be no surprises. :)</p>

<p>i just spoke with the owner by phone. the owner seems to know better.<br>

he said the only thing doesn't work is the lightmeter.</p>

<p>thanks for the response guys.<br>

i'm pretty much gambling with the pictures i've got. and i don't know why there's no picture of the bottom and the back view.<br>

i know that whiteface is over than 2000 in ebay. that's why i'm excited about it. but at the same time i'm worried that it'll cost a lot to repair if it turned out to be in a mess. it's not possible to pay with a credit card. i can only wish that the seller is being honest.</p>

<p>apologize for posting this on a wrong thread. i made a same post on the medium format thread.<br>

http://www.photo.net/medium-format-photography-forum/00W9tX<br>

i will respond to the replies. and continue to discuss on the link above.</p>

the seller doesn't understand how to operate this camera. and it's not his either. he said it belongs to his friend (who apparently doesn't know how to use internet or even a cell phone)<br>

for 400usd do you think i should get it? despite whatever the worst case is?<br>

@james<br>

i thought the color is supposed to be white on the 2 oclock above the crank ?</p>

<p>@ scott<br>

i have someone who can get it for me tomorrow but she's doesn't know anything about cameras. the guy offers 400 usd and he seems like doesnt understand camera as well. i asked him what's the type and he didn't even know what to answer until i mentioned whether it's 2.8f or 3.5f. with 7 digit serial number.<br>

at any condition. the worst repair problem. how much do you think it'll cost?</p>

<p>@JMD<br>

i realized i put the earlier post at the wrong thread. i want to delete it but i don't know how.<br>

apology for the double post.</p>

<p>i'm buying a rolleiflex outside my city and all i have is some of not-so-good-quality pictures.<br /> the owner said it's a mint 2.8f rolleiflex with sn# 2474182 with carl zeiss lens. <br /> i'm not an expert in rolleiflex models. i need to know whether it's good based on the picture since i can't visit the owner.<br /> i'd like to know if this is a whiteface and whether based on only the pictures below it's mint enough.<br /> there's no lens and strap for the camera. but he still have the leather case.<br>
