Whoa!!! Did someone say something about LeCamera while I wasn't paying attention. I've been waiting for the opportunity to tell my tale so here goes . . . The short story is that a used M3 I bought from LeCamera was unsatisfactory (mount spring so stiff you couldn't hardly mount lenses, rangefinder way out of vertical alignment, serial number indicated a later model with a preview lever but the camera didn't have one). It took three weeks (and several phone calls) after the camera arrived back at their shop for them to credit my debit card. They offered lots of different stories and excuses and made lots of promises. It seems like Le was the worst one for making for saying something would happen and then falling down on the promise. I finally got hold of a salesman there who saw that it got taken care of. As an aside while all this was going on I tried to buy a second camera from them but Le kept forgetting to send it out. I won't tell others what to do but I'll never attempt to do business with Le Camera again. Bob (I'll stick to ebay) McEowen
