Jeffery, I hope you suffer bad karma for making us jealous that you have 
such a wonderful Rollei amongst your goodies. Is the Rollei
cupboard in an annex of the 50 wing of your house?
Cheers
Hoppy

I bought an LN Rolleiflex 2.8F Aurum. Not only was it still in the box, it
was still in the corrugated box that the camera shipped in from Germany.

I find them to be conservative in their ratings.  I bought a 280/2.8 APO 
R lens from them... They fully disclosed that the barrel had a scratch 
on it (right across the Leitz logo)(and you need to see one of these 
lenses to understand that they seem to have the barrel machined from a 
solid piece of steel  ... the optics are perfect... and it came with all 
the accessories as originally sold.   I also bought a 1.4 extender from 
them that was described as EX --- I couldn't see any sign that it has 
ever been used.
