[Leica] Lusting for an M9

[rgacpa at yahoo.com (Bob Adler)]

Leon,

It is really a poor tactic to sell before buying for two reasons:

1. You will want some accessories with your M9: an extra battery or two, a 
"Thumbs Up", the hand grip, perhaps a Luigi case, etc., etc., etc.
     If you sell before hand you won't know how much to ask for your gear to 
recoup your costs...
2. You may decide it is important to keep some of your old gear as backup. 
Your 
wife should understand this as you will be taking her to exotic and distant 
lands on fabulous journeys. Once in a lifetime adventures that, if the new 
technology fails, you will need a backup that works with your new system.

Thus, as you can plainly see, you must buy first...
Trust me, any other tactic would be foolhardy!

Best,
Bob

All: I'm considering selling old technology to buy new technology. The love
objects I have in mind are the following: 1.  The original Noctilux, 50mm,
f1.2 lens. 2. The M5 body. 3. The R-Macro 100 mm f2.8 lens. Have any of you
any knowledge of what they might fetch given my wife's insistence I think
about selling them before going digital with the M9? If you wish to respond
off list I can be reached at: drleonpomeroy at verizon.net , Thanks, Leon
