Hi there,
Although I would like to buy a M8.2 or even a M9, the current aquisition of a WATE makes that impossible otherwise the wife :deadhorse: ...
Now seriously, I was thinking :
A good, mint M8.2 goes around for 2.500 pounds / 3000 euros / 4000 usd , or something around that region.
For one third of this, if still running, I can get my M8 upgraded to a M8.2 - shutter and framelines. I dont care about the sapphire glass.
Which seems perfect to me while I get money together for that M9 and then have two bodies : M8.u and M9.
I have just sent an email to Leica asking if the upgrade program is still running and what is the average turnaround for this as of today.
What you guys think ? Good idea ? Stupid ?
