This auction is listed at ebay USA therefore prices are without VAT tax. Buyers from EUROPEAN UNION without valid VAT ID number need pay VAT tax. It is in Slovakia generally 20% on total including shipping but I have many so called comission sales where you need pay VAT just on profit, this is way lower. Ask me in advance, please. When you won and paid it is too late!
This camera type was in production around 1932. Made by Welta Freital in Germany. It takes 3x4 cm pictures on 127 rollfilm.
Classic collectible and therefore it is in demand. Way rarer like 6x4.5 cm version
Description:
Without ser. No. Lens Schneider Kreuznach Xenar 50/2.9, uncoated, stops up to 16, ser. No. 444925. Shutter rim set Compur speeds 1-1/250, T and B.
Cosmetically is this camera EXCELLENT-. Leatherette with wear, starting to smooth. Metal edges with tiny scratches. Bellows nice. Black painted parts OK. With repainted wear on finder. Still quite nice and well preserved.
With case.
Shutter was recently CLA therefoe works properly, shutter speeds look appropriate. Glass on lens is clean, no fungus. Few countable tiny scratches on front glass are visible from rear end only. They will not affect pictures for sure. Focusing and stopping is smooth. Bellows looks light tight (controlled with flashlight). Selftimer works.
Air mail shipping and handling charge is WORLDWIDE EXCLUDING EUROPE $30 - INSURED; to EUROPE (including countries those are not in European union) $18 REGISTERED (letter), it has automatic insurance coverage up to €100 (Euro) per packet, if higher insurance is required than available shipping option is $32 INSURED (parcel - wait for my invoice if you want use it). They do exist express options (EMS and business packet) to most countries of world however cost are different (expensive) you need ask about them separately.
If post will confirm that insured packet was lost or damaged (you need claim by delivery) I will replace it - when impossible refund the full amount. I need wait for post confirmation, too many crooks lately trying to have both item and money.
It is included in it incombinable $5 packing and handling charge that remains by combined shipping. Rest of charge I will combine and calculate just true shipping charge for packet to your country if you will purchase more items.
I have declared up to 10 days handling time for my items. I need this time to control and last time test every item, for items shipped out of European union put it in custom office that needs 2-3 days prepare documents and transfer packet to post office. Expected postal delivery time is usually up to 2 weeks but delays simple happens, for example in USA packet often need more days for security control in custom office. For these reasons I choose to check ebay shipping option "economy shipping ... 11-20 business days", I hope that you will get as quick as possible (in most cases you can calculate get packet 1.5-2 weeks after payment date if you are in European union, 2-3 weeks for rest of world) but really I can not affect work of custom and post offices worldwide anyway and delays can happen. Online trackable it is in some countries, for example USA, China, Japan. Contact me before making any Ebay or Paypal claim, PLEASE!
Combined shipping saves often costs per item considerably but not in all situations, ask about exact items. By very cheap item is possible ship uninsured - this will cost $3 less, but I will do it only if you will declare that you will not make any claim if packet will be lost by transport.
Look at my other auctions for more camera items!
Greetings from Slovakia and happy bidding!
Sorry, usually I can't reply questions during Friday-Sunday. If is some difference between description and picture usually is mistake in description, by cameras, lenses, prisms, etc, picture always show actual item (some small items like extension tubes, flash shoes, etc can be exception).
