[Leica] Used Leica store

[Jeffery Smith]

Thanks to all of you for your input. Tamarkin is the one, currently with two IIIg. I don't recommend Samy's, at least not at the moment. They canceled my order twice, PayPal still has the money transfer as "pending". Samy's reason for canceling is that PayPal refused payment. PayPal saw no problem with the transaction. So, I need to get PayPal to cancel the sale. 

Tamarkin advertises itself as checking and CLAing as needed. Since shutter curtains are the Achilles heel of these older cameras, I have greater confidence in Tamarkin on having checked those. Ebay seems to rate cameras only on their cosmetic appearance, buying an old camera there is a crap-shoot. 

Again, thanks gang!

Jeffery
