I feel dirty just from looking at that.
Warning to the light hearted, this is pretty bad.

Check for other similar ones. $2000 is the 'legend' price, but some others use to go for $300-$600. There's a seller that has them up for auction regularly, maybe we could ask him about a bulk order for our mad Contax-LTM adapter project...
Any update on that Oscar? (the mad project)

Zeiss Ikon should make these again and sell them for $1700.

Hi
CameraQuest has an article on them.
I recall seeing a discussion on photo.net regarding someone who had a plan to take a Kiev and remove the mount to convert to a LTM. Had a machinist ready to do it and a number of photo.net members were ready to help out financially to make it so
I think there were some technical issues so the idea had to be dropped.
I have a 21mm 4.5 biogon I'd love to use on a leica LTM, but not for $1800.00
regards

The seller bought that last year for around $600 -- I watched the auction close and decided against bidding. He has similar "pride" in many of the other items he has for sale.
