    I think we are very short of shutter parts and techs

    We use Precision Camera Works. Over the past couple of years we've noticed the turnaround times are longer. Cost is ~$150. I think Bob must be fairly busy as he's one of the few repair shops for Copal shutters and he recently moved so best to email or call to get the latest.

    if you are planning to use the lens long term, have it CLAed. this is the only worth while option.

    otherwise....
    if you are goint to sell it soon, dont fix it, then its a bargain to the buyer and a headache gone.

    if you fix it and sell it, its a loss to you and a pain in the wallet.
