[Leica] for those who can't wait your M8 to come in......

[s.dimitrov at charter.net (Slobodan Dimitrov)]

 From my past experience with Leica fixes, they tend to run 10% to  
35% of the item's selling price. That would make it a chunk of  
change. I wonder how the warranty situation would fair if someone  
bought the M8 from Joseph?
