I've found this Voigtländer Bessa I in a box of camera junk wich came with the better stuff. A bit deeper in the box was the filter set, leather pouch and rangefinder The Bessa is in like new condition, only the 1 sec setting drags on. It has the color scopar 3.5 105 lens wich makes it somewhat more desirable than the ones with the 4.5 Vaskar lens. As i can't keep everything i like, this one is going up for auction in the upcoming weeks...

A Voigtlander is never junk material.

Should anyone be interested, it is now sold on Catawiki for 120€ somewhere in the middle of my lowest and highest estimate. Next on the line to be auctionned will be my Leica R3 Mot of wich i have 2 and i have finally come to auction of some material because i need the space. Things will go for whatever is bid for them, i don't care anymore.

Another Bessa I came my way, it's the same version as the one i've just sold, i think i'm gonna keep it for a while and then sell it on hopefully with a little profit  . Meanwhile the Leica R3 is sold, it went 153€ in the auction, so not bad  . At the end of the week my Nikon 601M and a Zeiss Ikon 520/16 will be auctionned, curious what they'll bring... Nikon 601 M went for 60€, the zeiss 520/16 got to 77€, some other stuff was also auctionned for acceptable prices, so far i'm happy with what i've got for selling my surplus material and i will continue selling as long as i keep getting good bids. Somehow it's a relief to free up some space and see what is sold being appreciated by the buyers. By expanding sales to the rest of Europe (instead of just Belgium and the Netherlands) i've noticed buisness is improved dramatically. Items wich were unsalable in Belgium found their way to Germany, Italy and spain to more specialised collectors willing to pay the price.
