Subject: [Leica] Expensive Leicas and collectors

>>I really don't think this is why Leicas are so expensive.  Although as a
user
and not a collector, I could get behind anything (legal of course) that
might
bring the prices down.  No offense to LUG collectors! : )


I think part of the problem is that Leica people will pay the price.
Collectors certainly have a thing or two to do with it. I buy it because it
is the best. Now, please explain why Linhof is so expensive, or
Hasselblad.... People pay it? I know a lot of people who shoot, but I am
the only one who uses a Linhoff. Perhaps I will sell and buy a new house.
