'm happy for you, but sad for me. I have one of those camera's also, with battery pack I was going to put in the Market Place here for less than $65.

sounds like you have my kind of luck. I wish you the best in selling your ZX-7. I gave up film when I went digital ,but after a while I missed it so now I shoot both. I really enjoy the ZX-7.

Easiest survey I've ever taken.

Btw, anyone ever bought an UG lens and was it any good glass wise?

I bought an "ugly" Mamiya 80mm f/1.9 for less than $80 shipped. the only thing wrong with it is a tiny little nick in the front element. It is so small that it took me a couple weeks to notice it. Trust me, it was a killer deal for that lens. On the other hand, I bought an "ugly" Mamiya 645 prism for next to nothing, but the silvering was destroyed right in the center of view, making it almost useless.

I've purchased several items from KEH, film and digital, small, medium, and large format. In my experience, EX+ is almost always functional, while EX and below have a somewhat worrisome chance of functional issues. Perhaps I just had bad luck with the specific items I purchased. However, KEH's return policy is EXTREMELY trouble-free and generous, and their customer service is great as well.
