Found it http://tinyurl.com/2tx9zw - considering the worn shutter cloth, the 
dings and wearing signs it seems indeed a proud price. It seems to me black 
ones are more sought after. Have seen some in working order going for over 
$1.5k. There are actually two for $900. Collectors or shooters? I don't know.

But OTOH, M2 are going for around $500. Just missed one, with Elmar 50/2.8, 
meter, case, boxes, manuals, for CHF 600.00 on Ricardo (local swiss internet 
auction).
