What a  horrible job.  The hue and patina are completely off, and they  didn't
even bother to fill in the engravings!  Good luck getting  anywhere near the
asking price.  It reminds me of some of those "gold"  Russian cameras (just
highly polished brass :-)

And the good news is that at least he doesn't try to convince you it is  some 
rare and special model.  He just says it is used and gold.  Both  are true. 
It might be helpful if he explained how it ended up gold and why he  thinks it 
should command such a high price.  We don't even know if the  light seals are 
good or if it has been converted to take modern  batteries.  Hmmm, I think I 
might hold out for an e-whatever when they come  out.  [8^)  Bill Barber
