Hi folks
I'm looking at a 4x5 Linhof Technika on ebay. The seller has provided scant information about the camera, but says that the serial number is 37379.
From the picture, I think it's a Technika IV.
But, as far as I can tell from reading other sites, NO Technikas were manufactured with serial numbers between 37105 and 49,999 (inclusive).
What conclusions should I draw, apart from the obvious one that the seller has made an error?
I presume that the serial number is on the shoe. Could it have been changed?
The seller seems to have a good ebay record, but I've been singed a couple of times with goods not being as described.
Thanks - Dario
