Crap. Restoring a camera kills "catch and release"

Crap. Restoring a camera kills "catch and release" tendencies.

I bought a Nikon F that I was going to use for parts. Ugly dented Apollo.

Bad thing is that I fixed it last night - got it working nicely.

Now I'm too bonded to it to think of re-selling it.

agree 100% ... had the same with a contax,
which "problem" later got "solved" by some burglars... 😱/

Consider yourself lucky to now have a working F that cost very very little.

it happen to me as well with my m2,m3, iia, pentax lx.
I think, i have too much unused camera, i'll sell it. But during inspection i found some problem and with a lot of effort, i managed to fix it.
Guess what, they still there in my drawer. If you managed to fix it, it bonds like a super glue to you.. So if you want to sell it, don't fix it yourself..
