RE: [Leica] So you want a new Leica M series Body?

Frank,
I think this is an excellent time to purchase an M-6. The seems to be a
hord of people, bent on having the latest, who are selling or about to sell
M-6s'. Many are those who need to own the best but hardly use them at all.
There should be some "mints" among them.
