Gray/Grey Bessa R2A/R3A In Toronto

[dcsang]

Just a "heads up" for anyone looking for the gray/grey version of these cameras.
While in dropping off some chromes yesterday at Downtown Camera in Toronto I noted that they had one of each (R2A and R3A) on display and for sale.

Other than the colour and the rewind knob, everything else looks the same.

So if you're looking for one locally (that is, if Toronto is local for you 😀) they're available at Downtown.

Cheers

But they are so expensive, last time I looked, they wanted $800 for R3A and $820 for R2A.

I got my R3A (not gray/grey) from them for about $750 before taxes back in July - I'm sure you could wriggle out a deal ?

Wouldn't it be cheaper to mail order from the US or get one of us to send you guys one? Declare it as "used camera parts" and hope the customs man will let it pass.

That might not be a bad idea 🙂
I always feel awkward by depending on someone else to do my.. *ahem* "dirty work" 😉

Mind you, I have ordered some stuff recently from Mr Gandy and I paid a paltry $9 for stuff that should have been a lot more in value.
