Well, I recently acquired a genuine ABLON film trimmer to use with my IIIf, so
now I can offer for sale

1 Japanese imitation ABLON film trimmer, $20 + $3.20 Priority Mail to US
addresses.

Actually, it's a little different overall shape than the genuine article, as it
has a high back piece with a slot in it to match the curve of the front piece
that hinges over the film.  It has two registration pins and cuts the same
shape and length of leader as a real ABLON, but it has a longer tail section
which lets you trim a long thin piece (up to 1.5" long, tapering to only 3/8"
wide, centered on the film) at the end of your film where you attach it to the
spool.  It is made of lightweight polished aluminum, the hinge works smoothly,
and the two pieces fold together tightly over their full length.  There are
lots of little surface scratches, so this is a user, not one for you film
trimming template collectors.

I'd prefer payment by credit card through PayPal, which is no-cost, immediate
and hassle free, but will take bank or postal money orders if you don't have a
Visa or MC.  A personal check would also be OK, but I'd wait 10 days for it to
clear.

Cheers,
Kip
