Hi guys,
Let me get straight to the topic, I have a Leica black chrome TTL with .85 viewfinder up for sale or for trade (with a M8).
It is absolutely beautiful with no brassing, no dings and very clean viewfinder. Personally I feel .85 is the best viewfinder after comparing with .72, maybe because I personally do not need a 28mm line and other frames are much larger thus clearer.
It comes with the box, all papers, instruction manual, and the strap. I am also including a $35 ostrich leather (I doubt it is real ostrich but it feels comfortable and soft, at least real leather) wrist strap, and a Leica M grip (again, I got this grip off from ebay for $55 so not sure whether it is genuine but it looks and fits perfectly).
I got it from Abbroud here on this forum 3 weeks ago, the original post is here:

He is a very nice and gentle guy who allowed me to bark for price. I got it for $1450. I shoot 2 rolls of film and even replaced the battery inside. The reason I am putting this up is because the schedule in my life does not allow me to own a film camera and spend too much time either going back and forth between a store and home, or develop my own film in a dark room. (Sadly I realized that after getting the camera) So I want to sell it or trade with a Leica M8, apparently with more $ put in on my side.
The price I ask is again, $1450, please consider that I owned the camera for 3 weeks only, with barely any outdoor shooting, a grip and a wrist strap on my side, a brand new Leica M6 TTL book, and maybe throwing in several Velvia 100 and HP5 up on your request. (Summing up to a ~$100-$120 extra value)
Pictures will come later tonight or tomorrow (I am not home now), but please do not hesitate to contact me for any interest and I can send picture to you up on your request. Also, feel free to contact me via email, [email protected]
Thank you all for reading,
best,
Lei
