[kknox]

What would you guys be willing to pay for a mint M3 from 1959? Looks brand new no box, or papers. Everything works. I dont need it, but it is so nice. Is $899.00 ok, whats it worth?

sure
I studied the case before bought mine.
This is excellent price.
Seems M3 prices are going up now by the way.

$899 seems on the steep side of reasonable. Go for it! I felt the same way when I got mine (for $600), but I have never looked back!

It's a good price if the viewfinder is as pristine as the cosmetics. If you can physically inspect it, that's worth another hundred dollars, at least.

I paid a little over $500 for my mint condition M3. Ebay seller had poor pictures, but had excellent feedback and did mention it was mint.

I wonder where do you find all this stuff for such money?
Seems ebay made for me a special entry...

I paid almost $1k and pleased with camera. I purchased from a dealer online.

Assuming that it is indeed mint, $900 is dirt cheap, you could realize thrice that within a year by reselling it - in mint or near mint state they went for prices upward of 2000€ ($3000) on the last Westlicht auction.

But I assume it is "ebay mint"...
