How much should I bid on this Canon P?

[gtramctram]

Hi there. I have a Canon P that looks to be equally as good if not in better shape than the one you saw on ebay. The ebay camera has krinkles on material inside the camera. The one I have shows some very slight scuffing, the material has no wrinkles.

The case is just as good as the on on ebay.

Let me know if you are interested.

I'd be interested in seeing the photos of the shutter...it's not every day you come across a Canon rangefinder *without* a bit of crinkling.

 

[flipflop]

none of my cameras has/had a wrinkled shutter.

I will try to get them to you. I just took some new ones this AM. I am not as good with digital as I am with the old stuff.

Since I am now holding that very camera in my hands, I can vouch for the pristine shutter conditions.

I'm lovin' that camera.

Wow. That's nice.

The one I have has very minimal crinkling, but it's there. Not a problem, though. Very pretty. 🙂

Yup, Tom was pleased!

A clean P easily goes for $450-$500 and so does a clean VI-L.

Camerex@chadbay.com just sold a super clean Canon P for $237 on ebay yesteday with only 7 bids. Perfect except for name engraving. Sorry you missed it. Kind of sorry I didn't bid myself but I 've already have an MP and a CLE. Maybe he has other bodies. I just got a minty 100/3.5 Canon RF from them and that's where I saw the P.

Recently P's seem to be going for a lot less than this unless you are buying from a dealer. This one went for around the 550 mark with a nice 1.4 and case.

i thought a good p would go for around 400 bucks now.
a clean, no marks, no wrinkle one.

Prices in general are down.

A very nice Contax IIa with J8 sold for under $200 last weekend. The camera was clearly a Contax, not a Kiev, maybe buyers got thrown by the J8, but auctions are on a down swing right now.

It also depends how you define a "clean P". I meant a mint one that is shiny and has no wrinkles in the shutter curtains.

 

[back alley]

that's what i meant too.
