Pentacon Six TL Kit w/80mm & 120mm Biometar Lenses/WLF & Prism Finder

Description: Return Policy: eBay has recently instituted a minimum return policy of 30 Days (to be considered a "Top Seller") which for used and very often vintage equipment is, in my opinion, too long. And all I sell is used and vintage equipment. I've checked the "No Returns Accepted" box for every item I am offering for sale but that doesn't mean I won't stand behind what I'm selling. Unless otherwise stated every item will come with a 7 day return privilege from the day you receive it. This is something that I did way back when, well before eBay got around to instituting a return policy. And if I've made a mistake (I do on rare occasions) and it is not as described I will also pay for the return shipping. The buyer shouldn't have to pay for my mistakes. However, if you've purchased an item in error (e.g. an FD Canon manual focus lens to use on your EF mount autofocus digital body) or had a change of heart and no longer want the item within the first 7 Days then you're going to pay the return shipping as I shouldn't have to pay for your mistakes or post-purchase decisions. That seems fair to me. I will also offer warranties of 30 Days or more on certain items. Expect to see that with more user oriented items than with collector oriented items. Pentacon Six TL Hello, and thanks for looking. Here we have a Pentacon Six TL kit consisting of the body, #117479, 80mm Carl Zeiss Jena Biometar lens #6695671, 120mm F2.8 Carl Zeiss Jena DDR Biometar lens #10081396 (with case), prism finder, waist level finder, a 58-62mm step up ring (the 120 is bigger, maybe 67mm so a 58-67 ring would be better so you could use the same filters but this is what was on it when I got it), and a Mamiya medium format strap that fits over the pins. Condition: the body is pretty nice. Shows some use and age but I don’t think anybody will be disappointed with the cosmetics. Shutter fires well at all speeds, even down to 1 second, however the shutter curtains, which appear to be in excellent shape, do not completely close. They tend to leave about a 1mm gap that closes as soon as you begin to operate the advance lever. Maybe some exercise will correct this. Or maybe a drop of lube in the right place. I think the fact it times well is more important. Prism finder is in nice cosmetic shape, a few more marks than the main body. There’s one scratch on the glass that shows up as a line in the bottom left corner when viewing through. It isn’t distracting at all in my opinion. There is a shallow dent on the back top right just above the eyepiece. Waist level finder is excellent all around. 80mm lens appears a bit more aged than the camera. Glass has some coating deterioration both front and rear but I think will still take good pictures. It works fine. 120mm lens is in great cosmetic condition, appears barely handled. Glass is clean. Focus is smooth but the diaphragm does not stop down. Weak spring I imagine. So it’s a little bit of a tinkerer’s set but I don’t think any of the issues are deal breakers and considering what you have to pay to get all this if you were get them all separately I think somebody is going to be very pleased with their purchase.
