Just Picked up a Jupiter 9 85/2

[cameosis]

i can’t wait to try mine! i got it yesterday, in »as-new« condition for a total of £ 46.99 (somewhere around € 72.00), including shipping. it looks great, and feels great (tastes great, too and is less filling, haha).

delivery took only one week, and i can recommend sovietarmystuff—the first time around, i had bought an industar-61 l/d and it never showed up. he fully refunded (including shipping) after i notified him. really good communication and service.

compared to these two auctions, mine was a real bargain:

i wonder how some sellers come up with such preposterously high prices …

Hello Daniel, I've got a Kiev J-9 on its way from Krasnodar, Russia to here. However, I've still my M39 SLR Jupiter-9 available for shipping costs 🙂 What was the deal already? *smiles stupidly*

 

[darkkavenger]

aaah ok sorry *blushes* I forgot! If you want to deal something else let me know 😉

I got mine in Moscow a few years back for $20. Early silver version in Kiev mount. 😀

How sexy, zhang!!! I'm very curious to see my new one, as much as the 50/2 sonnar that will soon arrive!

Yes that's true Daniel, however, I've been unable to find a 85/2 Kiev nearby, I spotted one only 4 months ago and of course I was out of cash then (as usual after my GAS attacks) 😉

That is why I'm liquidating my Zorki-S ... because I dedicated my life and my soul to the Contax/Kiev bayonet mount.. that is my religion in photo!
