I have a similar story, but one that might give you some encouragement. I bought a new M6 body from a well known store in Boston. Out of the box, the meter was failing once in a while. The problem grew worse, and after a week, I tried to bring it back to the store for replacement. They basically told me to take it to warranty service. I was expecting a slow repair process through Leica in NJ, but they turned it around within two weeks, just as they had promised me, and the problem was fixed. They even voluntarily called me back yesterday to verify that it was working, and that I was happy. Yes on both accounts. Anyway, despite your problems with the 35/2, I think you can expect good service from the repair department in NJ. They were never hard to get ahold of, and they followed through quite well. Andrew Notes: - - Wyman: this isn't the body I sold you -- not to worry! - - the Boston store took care of me eventually -- still on my good list.
