Hi Bob, You guys seem to generally get screwed in the UK on camera pricing however for reasons unknown Robert White had some of the best deals in the world for Mamiya 7 kit so that's where I bought a deal of mine. Leicas out of Germany are going for a song these days and the last one that I sold (excellent condition late black M6) in US$ only raised US$950 (with free International shipping).
