Where to find a used Rd-1?

[kiliii]

Hey all,

Trying to get back into rangefinder world, digital this time! It's been about a decade since I picked one up, and now today shooting with the Canon 1dmkII I realized that I really miss the simple photography part of the business. So I'm looking for a used RD-1, anyone know a good place to find one other than eBay? I looked around here to try to find a buy/sell forum, but couldn't find one....

thanks all!

Matsuiyastore on eBay is actually quite reliable and good. I just bought a usded R-D1 from them. It was delivered from Japan in just 4 days and was in Mint condition.

i bought one from ffordes for just under $1600, with a 6-month guarantee. I would have thought it's worth a couple of hundred bucks for that peace of mind.

A whole bunch of us purchased refurbed r-d1 from epson website. Check often.. check early.. buy quick though... they don't last but a couple hours when they are made available.

Thanks for the advice everyone! I will keep my eye on Epson's store and maybe do Matsuiya on eBay. Can't wait to get back to the old style.
