Leica M39 screw mount bodies/lenses

It is a tricked-out Industar, either 26M or 50. Check the aperture ring. These are all over Ebay in a variety of colors. They go well with the FED/Zorki 'Leicas', not so much for the NAZI versions, but the Matryoshka doll paint jobs.

Yep, faked up "Elmar" made from an Industar lens as Newst says.
Some very colorful fakes being made these days. Buyer beware.

Either an Industar-22 collapsible or I-50 Collapsible.
The I-26M is Rigid only, the I-22 has an uncommon Rigid version, and I-50 rigid mount is much more common than the collapsible.
You could complain that this auction is for counterfeit merchandise. Many sellers advertise these as "copies", this one does not.

It says it's coming from Ukraine. That seems unlikely to post right now or the foreseeable future, even for a Fake.

Might go well on this, if you're into that sort of thing... Coming soon: Leica M Typ 262 red anodized aluminum limited edition camera - Leica Rumors

Depends on where it's being sent from inside Ukraine. I bought an USSR-era 35mm developing tank recently from Kyiv. It was shipped with tracking on the 30th of April.
Though expected delivery is the 8th of June

I recently received a Jupiter lens from Ukraine. It took a bit over a month. I left to Poland and from Poland to here.
