I'm about to send to Westlicht a potentially valuable (10K+) camera. The camera needs restoration in order to achieve maximum price and everybody says that Ottmar Michaelly (close to Wetzlar) is the man. If I was not selling it, I would like to have it restored too. So, the camera must go back to Europe one way or another.
I contacted Westlicht in Vienna, they were very kind and helpful, and they offered to arrange all the needed things to put this camera in the next auction. All I have to do is to send the camera.
At this point, I wanted to check a bit before making a mistake. The camera is not exactly mine (I received it as a gift, but the owner didn't know it was so valuable, so I'm helping him to sell it properly for a little fee).
I know Westlicht for the quality/rarity of the things they usually handle and I have never heard anything bad about them, but the truth is, I have never heard of anybody buying nor selling with them. That is why I'm asking about someone having direct experience dealing with them, specially if you sold something through them. Any help will be appreciated.
