Leicavit M (Mint minus) the minus is due to some scuffing and light 
surface scratches, $635 + actual shipping cost.
Postal money orders preferred, or paypal with 3% add on - to 
zet@gci.net.  No personal checks please. This is not
for sale on -bay. Write off list if interested:  zet@gci.net

Works fine. I have 45 plus sales all positive on bay (as zetland) and 
have been reading this list for 5 years.
