I got one at a flea market in Germany , paid less than 100D.M. for it. About
$70. It was brand new and I have done 2 rolls of film with it. I find that
they are much better than people give them credit. Exposure meter seems to be
very good.

Mine came from Ukraine to Poland to Germany, with a mark-up along the way so
in the Ukraine they should be cheep.

Not a bad buy at the price.
