I guess the camera was in bad shape, but I'm not even sure what to think of this. Currently selling for $363. We'll keep an eye on the final price.
Note: Auction ended at $377.

That, is going to be one expensive parts camera. I don't get why people go nuts over something like it, except there is some sort of hysteria involved. And they don't take a good look at the photos. I thought it had been brassed when I put it on my Watch List. Didn't bother to check the pictures. I wish they would expand the size of the Watch List so I could keep track of more monstrosities like this one.

It was interesting to see what happened in the bidding. It sold for $377, but was at $401 at one point on the 4th. By the time the 8th came around, the second highest bid must have been pulled, because the high bidder mark went back to $377 for all the bids they put in up to $401. Why anyone would want to pay over $400 for a now junk Rolleiflex is beyond me. But then maybe they are going to chop it up, and sell the parts. Might be worth more that way.
