I wonder how they got hold of them. Did Leica close their museum and sell
everything to these guys? Who on Earth would pay 36,000 for that lens?
Some of these items they relist for YEARS and they never sell. No retailer
makes money offering things at prices so high they never sell. I wonder
what their REAL business is?
