Doug,
Your categorizing of your LX as BGN or UG made me think of my
original LX's condition. Having bought KEH BGN, I know mine is most
definitely described cosmetically as UG. With dings and brassing and shiny
spots. My other two are in much better shape with the one from I got from
Shel being in the best. As a matter of fact it is the one that now carries
the new FA-2 finder I got recently. It looks sweet without the hotshoe.
So, who has the roughest looking LX? Some of the details of mine
can be found on my LX tribute page at
http://cesar_abdul.homestead.com/LX.html
The page also offers my latest one (from Shel) so you can see that I
do have that looks 'nice', though I love the look of my original one.
