Yes, Bill, George had what I wanted several months ago and I got some very
good inout about him from two fellows in LHSA that live near him and have
bought from him. 

My deal was an M6 and 2.0/35 Summicron. I found his ad in S'bug to be true.
When Geo. says mint he means it! I paid a slightly high price to get mint,
but I got it! (In retrospect, the price may not have been slightly high,
since there is a bit of a shortage on used M6s in the marketplace.)

Only downside to dealing with George is the inconvenience of having to send
certified funds. Credit cards are a far easier way, but Geo. doesn't want to
pay that extra fee, and I can't blame him for that.
