Any more interest? We're almost there!

Yeah we only need buyers for eh....10 more bodies, 3-4 lenses and a load of viewfinders, filters and stuff... :)
 
Put me down for a plain II w/ a collapsible 50/3.5 :)

I'll take a IIa or II with uncoated 50 1.5 :)

Err... Edit..

I take that back. I think I'd rather just get the uncoated 50 1.5 AND a regular coated 50 1.5. No body. ;)

I wonder - purely for fun - how much we could 'pool' to make an offer on that :)

Assume that you'd see no more photos and just a couple of more comments on condition. All you know is that it's some guy in Germany getting rid of his Contax collection (and that he seems to know a thing or two about them).

I'd pay...hmmm.....
* Contax I body: 200 dollars (all bodies comes with a 50mm lens)
* 35mm lens: 150 dollars
* 85mm lens: 150 dollars

Running total: $500

(If you want to play..keep the total running - and remember what items have been 'bought') :)
 
Depending on a) condition & b) being able to pay after my new job starts in October :bang: then I could see $250 - 300 for what I pinged up above.

On the same site, I found this ad, since I don't read German that well, could someone tell me if it's photo-gear related? - Thanks!

Okay, forget the 50 1.5 lenses I wanted, I'll take that instead :D

I don't read german either but it does say "Preis" at the top box which is, I think, "Price" and below that it reads "Gratis"--"Free"?
Shipping might get to be pretty expensive though...

Ash,
Don't worry, the guy has lowered his price: only 8900 Euros, now. Well, as of 30 August, anyway.http://www.kalaydo.de
And he apparently reads/writes english(see last paragraph in his description).
