I paid $80 for mine, but it had a 35-105 lens, matching Minolta Flash, instruction book, and case. On a computerized camera like this you have to watch out for the "bargains" because they will have problems like bleeding LCDs. For some reason, the 50mm lenses are going for a premium, and I don't have one.

Total for mine was $23.96, but it was just the body, and a lens.
The other one I won cost me a total of $36.49, body only. So...

It looks like I may have overpaid.
Mine cost $95 CDN last weekend at a flea market.
It is like new. Has the Minolta 50mm f 1.7 lens, UV filter and a hardly used case, strap, lens cap and viewfinder cap.
I had to print out a manual from Butkus before I could figure it all out but everything works to perfection.
By the way. The lens has "(22)" on its rim. Does that mean anything to anyone?

MIckey,
I read somewhere (this forum?) in the past week or two, that "(22) indicates the lenses smallest aperture. Seems superfluous since the info. is on the aperture ring. My Minolta A 50mm and 35-105mm lenses both have (22) engraved on them but it doesn't appear on any of my MD or MC lenses. My 7000 zoom lens manual indicates the 35-105mm has a smallest aperture of f22~27. Whatever that means. The aperture ring only goes to 22. Life was simple when I was ten and my camera was a single speed, single aperture box.
