CLA, replaced shutter curtain due to burn hole (got to keep that lens cap on!), ans replaced outside covering. $326 USD. Excellent service and price! Plus she threw in a replacement battery cover as the original showed a great deal of wear. This M6 should be good for another 15 years+. If I can keep the lens cap on in this Texas sun! By the way, I did meet her here at the Houston Camera Show and she seems to really appreciate the good words here in the LUG. Don
