How about a good laugh

I hope he's got one in avocado.

As for the price, my guess is a misplaced decimal point. Probably it should be where the comma is. After the 6.

He's raised the price since I first saw it. It was $5000 now it's $6001
 
The lens is a J-8.

Someone in Poland has a lot of time on their hands.

Looks to me like it has a Contax back, given the raised bails on the bottom of the camera. IIRC, the bails on the Kiev are flat. The rest of it has Kiev features, such as no feathers on the arrow on the rewind knob, and no raised rim on the frame counter dail next to the winding knob. The bezel on the front of the lens looks unlike any CZJ Contax lens I have ever seen, either.

Funny thing is, CZJ is supposed to have made 4 or 5 Contax cameras in this hideous color scheme in 1947 or 1948, but never produced them for sale.
