This looks better than the couple of other items I saw on eBay. More than I wanted for this particular repair, but sounds like an excellent reference in case I need any information in the future. I went ahead and bought it. Some follow-up news (good news) on my 6x7 body purchase.... Prior to the end of the eBay auction, I asked the seller how the foam was, and she said as best she could tell, it looked fine. (I guess she wasn't aware of what to look for.) I placed my bid based on this information. I found out after inspecting the camera that the foam on and around the door was pretty sticky and decomposed. I sent her a note and let her know about this, and asked if she'd be willing to chip in for the repair. She apologized for the misunderstanding, and she told me that she'd get a check in the mail today to cover half of what I estimate the repair will cost. Quite a positive experience, I'd say, considering this was quite explicitly listed as an as-is sale! Bill Peifer Rochester, NY - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
