I was going to offer my uniblitz, I've got no idea about the quality or value of them, but it doesn't pass the smoke test. The shutter doesn't seem to open.
I'd expect that an old rangefinder, apart from maybe a leica, is something that you should be able to get for free just by asking around without needing to resort to international shipping. I bet that a lot of people have them stashed away because it was their dad's camera, but they've never gotten around to using it, or haven't run film through it since they got a cell phone that takes pictures.
