FS: Leica R8 with motor winder

I'm selling a mint body of R8 with motor winder attached to it.
The camera comes with box and the manual...

I just don't use this, so I'd like to sell it ASAP....

I'm asking for $700 ....

I have a plenty feedback at FM Forum...
I prefer to deal locally in New York....

"I prefer to deal locally in New York.... "
New York is BIG city....but rest of the world is bigger.I am in Australia and I have got lots of Leicas,but I do not have R8..and would love to trade Canon/Nikon glass for it.
So I am interested but I am not in New York.
cheers

Honestly, I'd love to check out this combo. But I don't want to buy into another system (and need to acquire R lenses).

Didn't you have a Summilux listed with this body at some point? What's your best price on the whole combo?

I do have the Summilux R50/1.4 as well....
I use an adapter to use it on my Kodak SLR/c ....

However, if someone wants the lens with the camera, I'll let them go for $1400.
I actually put $1450 on Craiglist .... :)


Here are the pictures of the Summilux R 50/1.4... 55mm 3-cam version.
Sorry for the poor pictures....

Nice looking Leica Paul. If I didn't already have one (with a motor winder and motordrive....for which I paid much more than you are asking), I'd be interested in your R8. Wish I had your 50mm Summilux (I've got a Summicron). Good luck with the sale.

Thank you for the nice comment...

I wish I can keep the wonderful camera, but the expenses on film and developing really kills me....:)

Congrats. I started writing you, twice, to make an offer on the body/winder + lens, but just couldn't bring myself pull the trigger.

If he took Pay Pal it would have been over days ago! ( i understand though & am glad he sold it!) Great Deal!
