Hey guys,
This may be a dumb question, and everybody knows the answer but I'm curious--ebay is always full of Graflex Speed and Crown Graphics missing the backs (and often the lenses). It looks like people just buy the cameras to sell the back and lens at a profit, and then sell the rest... Price for the backs are really high (usually over a hundred bucks). What are people using them for? I'm just curious, because it seems like you see so many of them like that it couldn't just be for custom cameras built from scratch or something... I could see a few going to retrofit spring back cameras with a Graflok, but again...seems like an awful lot of them?
Just curious...
Scott
