This extremely rare and unusual Leica M3-A Attrape chrome camera rangefinder outfit is in excellent condition overall. Camera body serial#12535A. This is a very rare and hard to find original Leica M3 Attrape dummy camera body with matching dummy Summicron 50mm f2 M lens. Leica made a number of dummy (Attrape) examples of their cameras and lenses over the years to use as demos and store displays for Leica dealers globally. These cameras were made from all actual parts found on their real life counter parts but were normally missing some of the internal mechanisms or had the movements locked up internally. These examples were marked on the top plate with a shorter serial number and the letter 'A' (for 'attrape'). An extremely rare and unusual find. Made in Germany. In excellent condition overall

If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to send us a message. You can also check our Terms & Guarantees below as they will answer most of them.

Not satisfied? Please try calling us before leaving a negative/neutral feedback. Emails get lost in cyberspace all the time but phone messages do not!

We try to answer every message we receive as best we can but please allow up to 72 hours for a response as we are closed on weekends and all Canadian holidays. Our business hours are Mon/Fri 10am/6pm EST(GMT -05:00). We can only respond to messages during these hours. We are now available on Saturdays 12pm/5pm by appointment only.

Terms & Guarantees

To be fair to all bidders, please do not ask us to stop the auction early. Bidders with less than 10 stars please contact us when bidding to confirm or your bids may be cancelled.

We try very hard to describe our items' condition as best we can but if you feel that your item was not accurately described please contact us. We are always more than willing to work something out, but please contact us first. Our return policy is valid if we are notified of the problem within 48 hours upon receiving the item. Refunds will be issued once the item has been shipped and received back to us. Refunds do not include return shipping cost.

Shipping

Our shipping charges include shipping, handling, insurance, tracking and delivery confirmation (also includes signature release when available). Shipping here in Canada is very expensive so please note that we charge, on average, 10% less than the actual shipping cost. As we are a small business we only ship out once a week so please allow up to five business days for handling. Pick Up is welcome and always FREE!

We ship worldwide! For shipping estimates please message us with the country of destination and we'll be glad to let you know. Please note that there are a few exceptions to overseas shipping. Please see our FAQ for country specific details. We try to quote accurately but with today's volatile fuel prices the quotes are estimates only. For Canada/USA a flat rate shipping rate is already in the eBay auction.

To Canada and the US we ship by Canada Post Expedited (4-6 Business Day Guarantee). Overseas we ship by Canada Post XpressPost (4-8 Business Day Worldwide Guarantee To Most Countries) or Canada Post Surface (6-8 Weeks No Time Guarantee). Most items are shipped by Canada Post but if the package is too large or too valuable then we will ship by UPS, or FedEx to cover the added insurance, size or weight.

If your item is lost, stolen or damaged in transit DO NOT throw out any of the packaging material or paperwork you've received and contact us IMEDIATELY. All items are insured and will be dealt with by carrier. We will do our best to aid you in getting your money back from them. For our antique items (plates, vases, etc) please be aware that due to the nature of the goods these items are insured for LOSS ONLY.
