That's overpriced. You can find a camera alone on ebay for less than $300. I sold mine to Dario for $200 after my first buyer disappeared. The lens sells for around $150.
Good camera, but not at that price. Unless it's a 67II. If it's actually a 6x7, it's at least 25 years old. If it's a 67, it's at least 15 years old. The most recent model is the 67II.
