This weekend I picked up a loaded jobo cpp2 processor for a 100$ us and a omega d5500 dual head enlarger with lens and 35mm-4x5 film holders for 100 $ I am kinda a newbie so that might not be a good deal.

I'll have to plead the 5th on this question.
A local photo editor died and was selling off his estate... They were gonna through out his darkroom stuff unless someone picked it up... I went up there and gave them 50 bucks to take it all away... The two digital timers, durst enlarger and two Saunders easels alone were worth a pretty penny... Hey at least I'll use it more than the dump will....
And today I picked up a rb67 setup sold to me "as is" because the seller wanted to get rid of it and didn't know what it was.... Bought it for 61 dollars... Works perfectly...
My best buy was a Rolleicord V for about £30.

I just bought a Eidoscope No.3 (275mm) for about 400USD - great price on local auction site. But still it was double price than I bought No.1 (200USD) and No.2 (150USD)
My best steal was buying my G Claron (355) from Kerry T last fall. Not so much the price, but this lens is really amazing, been looking for one in pristine condition.
Every time I loope a negative, I say to myself
What a steal!

My first large format camera was a Cambo SC 4x5 with a 210mm lens. I found it on Ebay at a good price and the Seller lived in St. Louis so I could save on shipping. It turned out that the Seller worked at a photography
studio in my neighborhood so he was nice enough to drop it by my house. A month or two later he called me and asked if I still had the camera. His boss wanted to mount a digital back to it. I was offered $100.00 extra if
I sold it back to him. Easiest $100.00 I ever made. I put it towards my Tachihara.
