However don't be so sure that the MD, JD, DDS of world aren't also looking for the bargains - can't get rid of us so fast!

Even worse, their upmarket income enables them to conquer an inadequately large share of the world market of Leica gear. Fortunately they are overloading themselves so much with work that they must shop for full-warranty stuff from official dealers, latest novelties, overpriced instant collectibles or pay rediculous prices on that auction site. Without them, companies like Leica would never achieve economic production numbers, even less at current price levels. Us bargain hunters and smart shoppers benefit from cheap prices for surplus Leica gear that could not be sold to lawyers and doctors. Profits made from selling Leica badged point & shoots to docters' and lawyers' wifes helps to support R&D and production of the real stuff. They will buy M7s and return their old M6s to us!
