Rolleicord IIc and Mamiya rb67 pro-s leatherette help

[Marijan]

Hello,

does anyone have a pdf file from which I can cut the leatherette for Rolleicord IIc. (and at the same time, if someone needs a pdf scann file of the Mamiya rb67 Pro-s original vinyl / leatherette covers, I did scanned mine when I took them of the camera for cleaning flattening and eventually re-gluing ). Mail me.


OR …. can anyone recommend reliable, honest, professional source for pre-cut leatherette for Rolleicord 2c. By reliable I mean someone who can actually deliver what they advertise and offer on their sites, ebays, etsy`s ....

So that when I click on "buy it now" button on listed/offered Rolleicord IIc covers, I actually do get covers for Rolleicord II c, not for IIa, Vb or similar (like I did and lost my money dealing with Hugostudio – no offer refund, no offer to send another set or to correct his mistake, "unwillingtohelp" communication, …).


Thanks.

OK< this recommendation will be followed with a few horror stories of their own, but anyway...

cameraleather.com

His web site is a mess right now.

Do this: take photos of the camera. Show all sides. Include this with your first email. Ask him to provide that, in a 'Rollei pebble' leatherette. Simple, with photos. Wait for him to send you an invoice.

I hope everyone remembers when dealing with Hugo and Cameraleather and Aki Asahi, that there are thousands of camera models out there. And when you get to Rolleis and such, multiple naming systems and references. The best way to get what you want is to send photos of the actual camera.

Agreed. But the correct way to do that kind of business is to start with the camera or two, you own. Or to buy or borrow two or three for which you think that will be "bestsellers". You scan them and you start with production, offering stuff that you are confident in. Than you invest in another pair....

You certainly can not offer the covers for cameras you never had, seen, measured, had a chance to study, scan etc. You can not (it seems you can actually) take someones money and not deliver the goods that your customer ordered and honestly paid for. And if you made a mistake you try to correct it, not just keep the money and switch to ignore mode after that. Sounds like reliable seller?

I run a small business myself. I would be deeply ashamed if I would treat my customer like that.

Thank you for suggestion Dan.
