10 seconds before the end, it was at $650 or so... fun to watch!
I offered $4,000 at the last minute (which was 6:00AM where I am... stayed up all night just to bid) but my PC froze somehow
I guess that is more prone to happen here in India...
I was tempted but the damaged aperture threw me off...

And the first four-figure Velostigmat I've ever seen. Mind you, it looks like a nice one...

Oh my, and a Burke and James re-paint to boot I'm pretty sure.
Oh yea! And what's up with the Eidoscope #2 (200540293997)?
€505 / $700
Has the craze vanished?
or I got lucky, didnt I?
Wow! A bargain at 2 1/2 X that priceOh yea! And what's up with the Eidoscope #2 (200540293997)?

I have been keeping this auction quiet! The seller might have the flange, and is from where I am from.
The lens belonged to a portrait photographer in Perpignan. Perpignan is 30 km from Ceret and Collioure, where lots of artists visited and produced art (Dali is not far from there either). So this lens might have "seen" Picasso and the likes some years back.
I have been waiting for that one for a while!
Bravo and congrats! Be sure to ask what else is 'old' and sitting around. Even those 'broken' ones that only have a glass at the back!
I know this isn't the "biggest steal ...." thread but my Eidoscope No2 cost me 200 euro's
a buy it now from Italy and it rattled all the way badly packed but my luck held out with no damage to the lens.
Regards
Sven
