Erwin,

We're not talking reasonable people here. We're talking the fascinating
breed the Leica collector. Some of them don't want their stuff touched by
other's hands. And in some circles they lost collectabilty if they seal is
broken. Has this trend died out since I learned about this unusual group?
C'mon you collectors. Weigh in here. Do you want sealed boxes like they
used to?
