I got tired of being ripped off by overseas buyers who would not pay shipping.🙁 🙁

I don't mean to sound rude but I've lost many sales because of it..

absolutely. But

on most of the lenses, including the 35mm, "Front cap only is included".

This means that in case you don't have the bakelite cases, you will be in trouble when wanting to be out of home with more than one lens.

At Alex Photo Goods you may purchase plastic back caps for the 35 and 85mm lens, but they are miserable to perform their function. And on the other hand I am not aware of bakelite cases being sold separatedly.

Now, this is not a death barrier but the buyer, in case of not owning previous lenses with their cases, will have to invent her/his solution.

Another minus is the lack of an original leather case, which for the models II or IIa (also III and IIIa) are among the finest ever manufactured. But these cases are being sold separatedly at a ridiculous low price, due to the sellers being lazy to clean and polish them.

Cheers,
Ruben

Hi Colyn,
I didn't realise it was your gear, I still can't see the problem,but I respect your experience.
Good luck---if it isn't already sold.🙂

I almost hate to sell but I am keeping one Kiev and will be investing back into my Leica gear.

7 out of 10 overseas sales failed because the buyer felt I was charging too much for shipping. I was charging what the PO charged so in order to stop loosing money I had to restrict shipping..

A clean and working kiev ? I could be interested, I'm contemplating to buy one (without meter) for my incoming birthday. But I don't want to spend much, <100USD ideally. And I don't really trust ebay for a (working & smooth) kiev. Buying several bodies, having to test them to find one working bothers me.

And I don't need another system. And I don't need another system. And I don't need another system. 😀
