Friendly note to anyone thinking of bidding for this camera on ebay

This is the camera (or if it's not they've got too identical in all means) that got me involved with rangefinderforum at the beginning of December.
Now they may have got it fixed, but it would be worth asking them to confirm it definately is in working order and has been recently tested (rather than it worked last time my Uncle used it). My suspicions have been raised to the extent that I'm providing a warning about the auction because they state again it requires a new battery. They do not state this time that it is in full working order but ..... As it is fully automatic, if the light meter still doesn't work then it's no use other than as a collectors piece.
