My Red Dot Glows For You
(didn't know this thread existed)
Seller: G-man (aka greyhoundman aka Dave); sold me a perfectly fine (so far!) Yashica Electro 35 on a Monday, paid him that same day (almost 3% less but I made him realize the fuzz of the math
), and camera was at my door on Wednesday.

I just completed a good transaction with Kevin Li of kevincameras.com.
I know others have had trouble with him, but he was willing to trade me a Canadian Elmarit 28mm Type-I for a Type-IV that's in good condition- only a bit of paint missing from the front edge of the focusing ring. Lens is clear, as promised (though I did have to clean the front element with a touch of alcohol and Q-tips) and takes nice pictures.

pacoats (Peter Coats): this gentleman purchased my Mamiya 6 set. The transaction went smoothly and he was a pleasure to deal with.

g'man - almost goes with out saying it was a great experience.
i sent the g'man a working but dirty yashica gs that belongs to a friend.
the filter ring was dented and the mercury battery in it was in need of replacement and the finder was hazy.
it came back looking new with a finder that looks great, clear as can be. and an adapter in it for a modern battery.
quick work and more than reasonable cost.
this man is our own treasure...

Just purchased a Mamiya 6 with 50mm and 75mm lens from hoot (Ronnie Niedermeyer). All equipment was exactly as described, and packed impeccably. It was a pleasure to transact with him, and am indebted to him to him for bringing me to the world of medium format!

Turned a junker GSN into a thing of beauty! All shiny and better than new! The man is a miracle worker, and a hell of a nice guy!

How did I miss this particular thread?
OK, some VERY late but still deserved kudos to:
backalley photo for a great Konica C35 Auto (Joe, stand up please), greyhoundman for a stellar Yashica GSN (Dave, wave to everyone please), and Rob for a beautiful Minolta Himatic 11 (Rob, take a bow).
Three very fine cameras sold by fine gentlemen in a highly professional, friendly manner.
If I've missed anyone that I bought something from, my profuse apologies... I've had naught but good experiences here from everyone.

received my CV 21/4 today. he managed to cast a spell on it so it avoided swiss customs and a 7.6% sales tax. fair price and condition exactly as described.
