Leica s2 Plus 70 mm lens

[Mike Sellers]

Can someone suggest a technician that can give this camera a good check out? I live near Cincinnati and might sell it for around $8,000. It comes with a minty 70 mm lens.

You might check with some of the really helpful Leica shops here in the States and see if they would be willing to do it for you, although I don't think any of them have technicians/repairmen. The usual non-official Leica repair folks here in the US won't touch the S or SL. Since my local Leica dealer is closed, I've had great customer service interactions with Leica Store Miami (David Farkas and employees) and Leica San Francisco (aka Camera West). $8000 is very optimistic for an S2 even if you have a CS lens. Typ 006's are selling used for around $5000, even from the Leica stores.

David Farkas is excellent and has been my supplier for many years. He can examine it and will give you a very fair price.
