[Leica] FS: Leica M6 "Classic"

["Thomas G. Tamura" <ttamura@aloha.net>]

Here's the story.  I got this body off of eBay a little over a month ago.
Had every intention of using it for an assignment, but didn't get it until
today (long story) - over a month later.  Suffice to say, the assignment is
done and over with and I no longer need a M6 (or at least not one that is in
this condition - a solid EXCELLENT.)

Here is how the eBay seller described the camera (and it's accurate, as far
as I can tell!)

"You are bidding on a Leica M6 black body (serial number1690430) including
the body cap & Leica box. The camera has been put to use (was that what they
were made for?) and was last serviced in July 1998 (Cleaned Lubricated &
Adjusted, with documentation). The leather is intact & looking great. The
bottom plate still has the protective factory plastic. The top plate shows
some paint wear & one very tiny ding. The finder is very bright & accurate.
The shutter looks & sounds right at all speeds. The meter works well.
Cosmetics rated EX."

Willing to trade (plus cash, of course!) this M6 with someone that has of a
"USER" M4-P body.  Would like to find one that's been serviced recently to
save me the expense (and head ache) of having the body CLA'd.

My asking price is $1250 (OBO) and this includes shipping/insurance via UPS
Ground (delivery time will vary between 2-7 days depending on how far away
you are from Hawaii!) to anywhere in the US.
