Laughing I pray every day for this shop , I hope it will serve long time us. Not easy to sell enough low price items to get enough income. They are at new place now, because old 60 yrs shop need to somebody else.. Twisted Evil

Oh wow. Shocked There is more camera gear in that one shop than there is in New Zealand! Laughing

Are the prices reasonable? Is that a whole tray of enlarger lenses, and another whole box of film?? Any shop that has not one, but *two* Robots is doing pretty well in my book! Cool

Also, can you translate "Hibas Aruk!"?

Yes, they are cheapest in my country.

Some price what I did see today. Exakta Varex 1000 MINT body + Tessar Zebra 40 USD. Body had some trouble , but I didn't find it Wink

Russian RF cameras 20-40 USD etc

Hibas Aruk = Faulty items

Best bargain what I saw here, sadly I did arrive late...

A Leica Noctilux F1.0 lens for 300 USD
Laughing

Old expired films usually cheap 1-2 USD , new film price is higher than in USA.

Usually they have Eastern European stuff +Nikons , but some exciting also available like Robot, many Leica, Voigtlander etc mostly pre-wars.

This shop deserves to survive! How are the prices there compared to "normal" Western prices? Good/bad? (Edit: never mind, Attila already wrote about it).

I like that book about Josef Petzval ("The Life and Merits").

They have large choices from photography books most of them written in Hungarian , but many German books also available. Owner buy stuff on dirt cheap prices and sell them quickly on low prices , usually choices changing within a few weeks.
