Perhpas cause you overpriced it ? Confused

The 159 is a peach of a camera, and I have one. It's especially snug in the hands with the winder attached. But I do think this one is, unfortunately, overpriced. The Aria sells in the UK for around 250 euro, the 159 on its own has been fetching 80 - 120 for the last couple I've seen, with the winder fetching 35-45 euro. The Aria's 250 euro is a dealer price with, usually, a six month warranty. A 'no warranty' sale above the dealer average will struggle for takers.

As it happens, I think the 159 feels nicer in the hands than the Aria, and the 250 flash synch speed is a real bonus. Whoever buys this will have one of the sweetest cameras in the Contax range.

Might help if you update the original post with the new price.


Cobalt, is your wife making you sell everything?

Might be cheaper to sell the wife and keep the shoes.
