The Russians are coming (to ebay)

[Greg Erker <erker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  I stumbled across a completed auction for
a "rare" Sputnik camera. The interesting
thing (aside from the closing price of $192)
is that the seller is from Russia.

  I'm not sure about the problems involved
with ordering from a person in Russia
(with a +1 feedback rating) though he does
say he pays the shipping.

  But perhaps it's a sign that the dirt
cheap Russian camera supposedly found in
Russia will turn up on ebay (at higher but
still decent prices). Soon we all might
be able to get a $100 or $200 Kiev 88 or 60
(or two).
