If I'm not mistaken this M2 was previously listed as an auction rather than BIN, & ended early by the seller. Now we know why.

Xmm, appears to be all over unrealistic pricing. Can't imagine who will pay such amount (even if would be over 2k$) for, even collectable, regular production M2.
Do they count on some rich ingenuous collectors ?

I was thinking of just having my 300 $ M2 painted.

The close-up shot of the shutter release appears to show paint spatter. Maybe the guy who did the refurb work got sloppy with the spray paint can.

I would think for $4,700 USD (basically the price of a new M8) the seller would throw in a free round trip to OZ for the buyer to come and pick it up in person, especially if the photos cannot convey the depth and breath of the finish...

chrome looks just much more better.
This is not sour grapes syndrome... I really think it does.

I like the "no reserve", start at 5.5K, BIN at 5.6K. I can see he knows what he wants. I think Noel's right about the first one, looks like a refinish from here too. I know a refinish can knock £1000 or so off the price of a old Fender or Gibson guitar, so I'd assume the same for a black paint Leica. Do I have this right?

I thought the collectors liked the black M2 like they were users? hey I'd had troubles resisting the leiciavit... You wont see many of these.

Hi... I like chrome cameras, and please don't jump on me. They feel right and real to me... not all chrome, but part chrome and vulcanite. And, I love my chrome, 1965 M2... which shows normal signs of 35 years worth of use [with me].
Is $5,500- well spent on a special edition black M2? Perhaps, if one is a collector. I'd rather go for an M8, black ;-) and a good 50mm. See Link:
