On the other hand, there seem to be pretty good deals on Leica gear for the 
user. In the last month or so I have bought a slightly worn M4-P body, a 
sweet 35mm Summicron w/hood and a like new 24mm ASPH w/finder&hood -- $2,700 
total. I feel like I've done pretty well. I've passed up several perfectly 
acceptable 90mm (both f2 and f 2.8 versions) in the $350 range. Sure there is 
plenty of idiocy but there are good buys as well.
