It's meant to put a small hole in it to take Leica Box pinhole photographs. 😉

Local pickup only. Odd. I guess they don't have a box to ship it in. 🙄

...but it's beautiful, rare and a collector's piece. 🙂

It's a keeper. Priced not to sell.

For just a little bit more you could have a brand new m3 including the Box...

I have a rare Amazon box, I will sell you for Jeff Bezos's net worth.

Yes, for just a little bit more. LOL!

Yeah, if alone the box would be that expensive, it’s a true bargain... lol

 

[raydm6]

Think of all the M3 Boxes you can buy for that!

That's truly unbelievable.

I should have kept the packing material from my Leica, I probably could have gotten at least $500 for it.

I have my original MP box, with all the really nice internals. I can't begin to imagine what it would fetch!!!

😱

Forget a global pandemic, this truly points to the end of rational humanity.

Well, if it sells, then we can decide if it was crazy or not. It is a rare item I think. Collectors are crazy.

I bought an M3 box like that a few years ago for $900. All original paperwork included. But I guess it wasn't that rare, as it wasn't empty. It had a beautiful M3 camera in it too.

Blimey, I have an even rarer M1 box which I got with my first Leica. Wonder what the M3 box seller would give me for it!!

 

[loquax ludens]

This ebay listing purports to be for the last M3 ever made. Near $400k seems a bit high, although the camera does appear to be in "mint" condition.

Apparently it's been for sale for a couple of years now.

But if it's never been used, how do you know it works?
It probably needs a $500 CLA from sitting so long, in the box of course.

Wonder if the counter should read 0 then 😀?

Cameras looks to be in amazing condition....but 400K worth? It needs a celeb who shot a roll of film through it 🙄

Only a barbarian would use such a fine specimen for photography! This goes on a shelf in an sealed vault only to be shared with the most important of Leica collectors.
