I jest wun a Tashica T4 ...

20 dollarettes, as used to say comrad Ruben, isn't highest price for T4...wait, were T4 sought after model of Yashica P&S? I think there are...at least, were. Is film P&S market going down?
 
btgc, searching eBay completed listings shows that the Yashica T4 still averages more than $150 final sale price. T4 Zoom and Super usually go a little higher. When mis-labeled as "Tashica" T4, however, price is not so high.
 
I've found a few that fly below the RADAR screen, mis-listed, misspelled, mis-described. Makes up for the ones described as "working perfectly" that don't.
 
My favourite was a "Rego", which turned out to be "FED" in Cyrillic but looked at and read when upside-down.

The "Zorka" was a nice camera too but I'm still looking for a "Lieca"...

Regards, David
 
I got the T4 in the mail today, and what a pretty little thing it is. Popped a battery in, everything seems to be working fine. :) Time to take some pictures. :D

On a sad note, I really should have bid on that GR1 that was listed as "for parts, not working" that went unbid upon with a starting bid of $9.99, then was re-listed just now as being in excellent working condition. :bang: Win some, lose some.

You never know which description is closer to real condition :D
 
Since my purchase of the Tashica, I have also purchased a couple other very nice off-brand cameras. Last week, I received an excellent Nilon One Touch. And now, I am awaiting delivery of the soon-to-be legendary Zuiko 38 M M. The Zuiko is a very special camera, most likely used by Ghost Hunters. It has "paranormal" mode for capturing those very difficult to shoot ectoplasmic beings.
