Couldya? Wouldya? Shouldya?

If you answered "YES!" to any of the above, it's for sale on ebay.

I'm on the lookout for an M6 as well but I don't think this colour would go with my nails 😉

 

[captainslack]

WOW!!! That's ugly!!!

 

[Kyle]

Oh my!

 

[SolaresLarrave]

I saw it today... it should be called "The Fireman's Leica". 😉

As for your query... nope, nope and nope... Although, at a given moment, restoring this camera to its original glory may be a fun project.

Garish color scheme aside, it doesn't look like it's ever been used. What a shame.

...,it doesn't look like it's ever been used. What a shame.

I think I can guess why, Wayne 🙂

I would use it for a week, then get it releathered. That is provided I got it for sub $300 USD.

Every man has his price and I would pay $300 for her (provided she was in excellllllent working order).

I would however need to be dressed like Grocho Marks during that week, it is the right time of year.......

The strangest thing of all,

Everything is red, apart from 'the dot'!!

Go figure

Mad_boy (but not Mad on Red)

 

[MadMan2k]

Actually, I would shoot with that. If it's for sale when I have the money from selling my DSLR and lenses, I might do it..

Ask the seller what tone of red this is; I wouldn't be surprised if he replied "Red?? It's a lovely shade of grey, very discrete!"

Same seller, this one is actually easier on the eyes:

 

[BillBingham2]

Plus $75 shipping to USA. I tried but someone wants it more than me. B2 (;->

Well....they are both distinctive. If you had to insure that against loss, it wouldn't be too difficult to discribe to the insurance guy. The silver and red is actually somewhat attractive IMO.

Still weird to see though. 😱

 

[venchka]

Somebody wants it. $1,350 with a few hours to go.

 

[Paulbe]

I really think these cameras were made for Elton John and are therefore quite rare--and worth a significant premium....or whatever.

 

[Goodyear]

I like them. Way too much.
