Antique/Vintage Ciro 35 Century 50mm Graflex Graftar Camera



I have come across the largest collection of antique, vintage, and semi-modern (from around the 1890s to the 1990s) cameras that I have ever had the pleasure of seeing, let alone selling. We have a collection of cameras from a gentleman who worked at Eastman Kodak in Rochester New York, taught photography at a local high school, and decided he wanted to get into the camera collecting business about 25 years ago – and his whole collection is to be sold here on eBay via this eBay store. I do not have the time or the space to have all these cameras listed at one time, so you will need to stay tuned over the next several months and watch out for new listings to see them all. I am not organizing them or inventorying first … again I don’t have room … so it is just going to be listed one box at a time. Some of these cameras are not so rare or valuable, some are very rare and valuable. If it was camera related, this flea-market and yard sale hunting camera lover bought it! From toys, to dark room, to video, to accessories, antique photos, and even a bit of advertising. I will be selling some as single cameras and some I will lotting up to make room to list more.

I am not a camera expert (though I might know a little something by the time I’m done with this collection) and most of these cameras are old and I don’t have film to test them. All cameras from this collection are sold as is, as pictured without being tested. Many of them have been in storage for a long time and are dusty and dirty from being packed away. I am not cleaning them up, they are going to go straight to you the way I found them.

Now, about this lot:

Item is untested and sold as is. The shutter operates.

I am happy to combine shipping on these great cameras and camera related items … or any of the items in my store … simply request an invoice when you are done bidding but BEFORE making payment.

Please see photos for exact details. Thank you for checking out our listing. We’d be happy to answer questions you have about this item before bidding.

We ship most items Worldwide. Any time there is a free shipping option; this option is for domestic shipping only. The shipping calculator should show you what the shipping + packaging will cost for domestic and often international purchases. If there is no international price shown, please send questions about shipping cost before bidding. Insurance is included as part of the shipping price. Due to eBay seller protection policies, we no longer will ship First Class International. Sorry! All international buyers are responsible for paying any customs fees associated with your purchase. International shipping cost in NOT-Refundable under any circumstance.

MADISON HEIGHTS ONLINE CONSIGNMENT does its best to make sure all items are packed securely before shipping. Sometimes this includes packaging costs in the shipping price for things like bubble wrap, padded envelopes, etc. Please keep this in mind when examining our shipping cost. We want to do everything we can to make certain an item arrives at your door in the same condition it left ours. If you select economy shipping we may ship USPS Parcel Select, USPS Standard Post,  Fedex Ground, Fedex Home Delivery, UPS Ground, or Fedex Smartpost at our discretion.

MADISON HEIGHTS ONLINE CONSIGNMENT would be happy to combine shipping where it is reasonable to do so. Keep in mind that sellers also must pay about 9% of shipping price in eBay FVFs. Paypal processing fees are also charged on the shipping price. That being said, if you want to combine multiple items into one shipment, we are happy to send a combined quote to save you shipping cost, but you must send a combined invoice request prior to making payment. Do NOT send multiple payments and ask for a refund of the overages.

MADISON HEIGHTS ONLINE CONSIGNMENT accepts PayPal Payments.

Please do not send personal checks.

MADISON HEIGHTS ONLINE CONSIGNMENT does not charge convenience fees for credit card purchases.

Payment is expected to be received within 5 days of purchase. If payment is not received in 2 days, we may initiate an unpaid item case. Any items paid for while in an unpaid item case do not result in a strike. We do this to ensure that we can relist items from non-paying buyers in a timely fashion and pay our consignees. Under extenuated circumstances we may wait up to 10 days before filing an unpaid item claim, if you contact us about a problem, or that a payment has been sent. If you are buying multiple items, or waiting for more of our auctions to end, let us know and take your time.

Thank you for your continued support. We love our customers and do our best to get items to you in the condition pictured.

 



We do our best to describe items accurately. We do not claim to be experts or know the history of individual items. Buyers are always welcome to inspect items in person at our location or request additional information or pictures.

Items may be returned for a full refund of the purchase price, original shipping, and return shipping within 14 days of purchase only if one of the below applies. To avoid paying shipping charges and a 20% restocking fee for your returned items, one of the following MUST apply:

1. The item is described as “working” and arrives dead on arrival. This does apply to a used item that is a bit finicky, has scratches, or powers on but doesn’t do everything expected. If an item is sold for parts/not working – this does not apply.

2. We sent the wrong item.

3. The item is damaged to an extent where it obviously does not match the description or pictures (many times this means it was damaged during transit)

If you are returning an item because it did not meet expectations, the buyer is responsible for shipping costs and a 20% restocking fee unless it meets the above conditions.

All items must be returned in the original condition to receive a refund. This means that if you  purchase a new or sealed item, it cannot be returned unsealed or used. 

Under no circumstances do we refund international shipping costs.

We sell on consignment and pay all of our consignees after their items sell. This means accepting a return comes out of our pockets – when we only made a small percentage on the item in the first place. Please read all descriptions, examine all photos, and make sure the item is right for you before bidding.  All clothes are meant to fit someone, but not everyone. It's up to you, not me, to figure if you're one of those someones. If they don't fit, you can send them back, but you are responsible for return shipping and the restocking fee .

WE NO LONGER SEND REQUESTS TO MUTUALLY CANCEL A TRANSACTION. We have had too many incidents were people bid on an item and want to back out. They ask us to send a request to cancel the transaction and then the refuse the request or never bother to approve it. This means we have to wait 7 days to relist the item which our consignees want to see sold, pay fees on an item we never got paid for, and/or, in some cases, even receive a defect on our order and suffer damage to our eBay standing. Often, these buyers leave a "3 star" rating on "item as described" which counts as a defect on our order. Due to the abuse we have suffered from buyers when trying to cancel a transaction, we can no longer make exceptions. Please only purchase items you intend to pay for. Thank you for understanding our position.  

No warranty is made with respect to the accuracy of any information provided to bidders regarding auction items, provided in either written or image form, and bidders should rely solely on their own investigation and/or research of the item they place bids on. All items are offered for sale “AS IS.” Seller makes no warranty, guarantee or representation of any kind, expressed or implied, as to the merchantability or fitness for any purpose of the items offered for sale.

If we have a guarantee of functionality for an item and it is not working when it is received, please report any problems with functionality within 5 business days, as we will need to pay the consignee of these items. Reporting functionality issues more than 5 business days after arrival will forfeit any future claim. Bidding on this item entails acceptance of this contract. Please retain all packaging for insurance claims. If the buyer does not cooperate with the insurance process and we are unable to recover the insurance claim, we are not responsible for the damaged item.


Thank you for looking. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
