Michael I hope it's OK to post it here...

Dear LLers,

David Toase, a Leaf user from UK, had most of his photographic gear stolen in early November.

Attached is a complete list of the gear, at the top you will see the Leaf items. If anyone happens to bump into any of these or sees a cheap eBay sale or whatever, please contact David ASAP on  () or myself on  ()


Thanks!!!!!

Yair

There was a large quantity of dodgy looking Hasselblad gear, including HI stuff and digital backs, on UK eBay just this week, with bizzare "Buy it now" prices of £700 apiece.  No bidders, apparently.  May be worth keeping an eye on the listings, if not already doing so.

I'm glad toinform that after more than 4 months, the police has recovered the Valeo back, H camera and lenses. A few other items are missing but the camera, back and lenses are all safe.

thanks

Yair

Glad to hear that David got the lion's share of his gear back.
