PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing

Item for Sale
Pentax LX body with FA-1 finder, SB-21 focusing screen and original Pentax grip

Asking Price
160 USD

Item Location
Kuusamo (Finland)

Item Description
For sale is my extra Pentax LX that has the sticky mirror syndrome. This is why I have listed it as damaged. Other than that, it is in excellent condition, no dings or bangs anywhere. There is very few places on the exterior with signs of wear. There is almost no brassing, i.e. the black paint is in good condition. Also the fake leather is almost perfect with only extremely minor peeling at three different locations.

The body comes with the FA-1 finder, SB-21 focusing screen (matte with a split-image center) and the original Pentax grip. These are all in excellent condition.

In summary, this camera needs a CLA by e.g. Eric and it is ready to become a real workhorse for someone. I have a CLA'd LX already so I do not need this one. I got it as a part of a package deal last year or so and it has been sitting in the closet ever since. I think the current charge for a proper CLA is around 200 USD so this is a sweet possibility to get a real classic Pentax pro camera at a very friendly total price.

I will post photos later.

Bump. Price dropped.

Here are the promised pics of the camera. The finder, focusing screen and grip alone are easily worth more than 100 USD.
