I own one and I use it. For me it is perfect because the M6 Classic is my body of choice and that's the only way to have it with the .85 finder. I am sure people collect them...especially mint bodies...but I prefer to think of them as a user's tool. Evaluate your needs. Do you prefer an M6 Classic to other expressions of the M? Do you need the .85? If you answer "yes" to both of those questions, keep it and be a happy photographer. If you answer "no" to either of those questions, make some collector happy.
