The honest truth is that they do not get too much of a premium over the
.72.... Figure the range of $1300-1700....    If it were an M3 variant with
a production run of 3130 cameras, it would sell for 2-3 times the regular.
I guess the collectors are jaded....

BTW, M6 go for $900 -1200 ( not too many at 1200)

I've got an M6 pre TTL 0.85 that I'm not that keen on - much prefer my M4 &
3 (and use a good handheld meter for color work - Sekonics & Lunasix 3).  I
picked up a Bessa R2 and also have a CL for metered bodies anyway.

I bought the 6 new, have the box (can't find the papers).  Shot maybe 50
rolls though it and am getting ready to move it to maybe pick up another M4.

Anyone have an idea of the current worth?

On Ebay it seems the range seems to be about $1,400 > $2,300 (I paid $2,200
for it & would love to break even).  I have no idea of good Ebay strategy,
I've bought and sold just bits and pieces.

Thanks in advance, I'd really like to avoid cheating myself as I have so
many times in the past!
