Hi there,

My dealer ( photo... ) gave me a call and said "your M9 is here".

Therefore, my Leica M8 is up for the grabs for a super reduced price since I want a quick sale, and it comes with LOTS of extras :

* Leica M8, I'm first and only owner - bought it new, on Singapore, 2 months after it came out. Comes with boxes & papers. It has light used marks ( I'm very "anal" about equipment description, it has no dents or hard scratches, just some light normal usage marks for a 3 year old camera ) in Silver

* Leica grip, original, bought 3 months ago new - with box. Silver

* Leica black dot - original - don't ask

* REAL leather covering : it has been recovered just for the simple fact that I find hedious the original covering that feels, looks and smells like plastic.

* erased ink on the M8 : erm.. just because I liked it. No marks.

So couple of pictures :

PRICE : 1750€ with shipping included for Europe via UPS.

Payment : Bank transfer with IBAN or Paypal.

ebay : got 100% score, long time user ( goncaloacproenca ), long time LUF forum user and I bought one item here already !

location : Lisbon, Portugal

Wow, that's cheap! I wish I had the cash lying around to upgrade to an M9, but I guess I have to wait a while.

Ahem !

Yes its a cheap price, I just want to sell it asap to make way to the incoming M9 ; that said, if I dont sell it until the end of the month, time that I will have to pay the M9 in full without the need to sell the M8, I will most likely keep the M8 and I dont want that.

That is one of the coolest looking M8's I have ever seen!
Mr Huff, now that's quite a statement coming from the reviewing guru. Please note that its because of YOU that I'm buying a M9 : your review,aditional reports and endorsement were convincing. A Leica rep in the making ? :D

Wow, that's cheap! I wish I had the cash lying around to upgrade to an M9, but I guess I have to wait a while.
If I price it right, it will take time to sell. Hope it moves fast and I forget ideas of having 2 bodies, because if I dont sell it fast, I will keep 2 bodies...


Proença, I wish I have the money right now. It would be cool to keep that beauty in Portugal :)
:) cheers

That is cool:thumbs: May I ask if you used Cameraleather and if so which leather is it? I am thinking to recover my steel grey M9. Have already replaced the red dot with the black.

Thanks,
Alan
