Well it looks like it is just me and my imaginary friends.
I'll see me there.

I had money and now I do not
I had money and now I do not
Well,
I had lot's of fun at the market today. Mostly because I had a large (for me) amount of money to play with.
I had been in negotiations with another RFFer about an Xpan which fell through so I was in the mood to buy and hoped for an Xpan, unlikely as I knew that hope to be.
There were no Xpans. But there was a Mamiya 7 which I fondled longingly with pretty much instant knowledge that I was not going to buy it. Why? I'm sure I could come up with a logical reason if I tried. Mostly I was after panorama.
Linhof Technorama was very tempting and much heavier than I expected.
Saw a really nice old Gorizont/Horizont which I would have bought if the Hasselblad SWC wasn't screaming for me to come over and play.
That's what I got.
I have no idea how to use it. No idea how to load the film. But I loved it and can always crop the scanned negs.

Some pictures:
Please excuse the quality I was feeling lazy and used my phone. Or tell me I am not excused and must go and take proper pictures instead.
I got the handle at another stall for $15! They talked themselves down until I HAD to buy it.
Also got an old Linhof tripod (nice ball head) for $20.
I didn't see any RFFers that I could identify but as usual all you can really see is people bent over tables.
Well now I'm trying to decipher my downloaded SWC instructions on how to load film.
If all goes well I'll post pictures and by the popularity of this thread I will then look at them.
Time for bed.
