Asahiflex H2 on e-bay

ASAHIFLEX H2 CAMERA PENTAX ASAHI OPTICAL - eBay (item 300238681393 end time Jul-09-08 19:00:07 PDT)
If you're not familiar with Pentax film history, this camera was sold only in South Africa as the Asahiflex H2 instead of Asahi Pentax because someone else there had trademarked Pentax. Just over $200 US with 11 hours to go.

Seller doesn't show a picture of the bottom, a place that suffers the most wear on these, but the rest of the camera looks pretty nice.

True but I think the bottom of most of those back then, S1a, H1a, H3v, SV, etc. were pretty generic. Even if it was beat up, it wouldn't be all that hard to find a replacement. I've got a couple of them in halfway decent shape off of my parts cameras.

Up to $300 USD with 6.5 hours.
