Availability of LX back cover?

nickthetasmaniac · 07-24-2009, 06:51 PM

Hi everyone.
I'm looking at buying an LX, and I've found one that is apparently in 'good operating condition' except that the back cover no longer shuts properly and will have to be replaced.
How hard is it to find spares and how expensive are they? Would it be worthwhile (the LX is selling quite cheap), or is it likely doing to cost more in the end than buying a fully operating body?
Sorry if this is a stupid question...

thanks, nick

You may want to contact Eric (Pentaxrepairs@aol.com). He'll get back to you pretty quick.
