Re: [Leica] Re: Gitzo Tripods for an M6

[Rei Shinozuka <shino@ubspw.com>]

justin helped me out with a 1228 leg lock problem.
unsolicited, he emailed me and recommended i  bring it to his office
(which is a couple of miles from my house); they took it
and in 2 days it was back at my doorstep fixed at no charge.

the best service for the best product.
