Been cleaning up my collections and stuff in general now that we have downsized to a home 1/4 the size of our old home. I have settled around a K-1 and a gaggle of lenses I use on a regular basis, so that many of these have become redundant, or infrequently used. Most of my DA kit is here, along with older film cameras and a big ole 6x7 that I experimented with a long time ago. Everything is in great shape unless specifically indicated. Taking offers for these before they go on ebay, serious offers only. The offer should at least be in the ballpark of their value in the open market. The gems in here I will miss the most are the Cosina 55 1.2, and the A* 200 2.8. The smc m 135 2.5 is also phenomenal. Without further adieu, here is the list. I'll be monitoring my email more frequently so as not to have anyone wait too long for responses. Thanks folks.

The Gonzster!! Well as I live and breathe. Hope you’re well. What an amazing list - just open a store!!! :-) Cotty > On 5 Apr 2024, at 20:58, Gonz <rgonzomatic@gmail.com> wrote: > > Without further adieu, here is the list.

Hi Cotty, good to hear from you. Been well. Sold house in the city, now live in beautiful texas hill country. "The Ranch", as we call it, keeps us very busy. 41 acres of rural beauty with amazing wildflowers almost year round. Yeah, moving to a tiny place in the country means no space for all of our goodies from our hobbies. Had to unload the most unused stuff. --R On Wed, Apr 10, 2024 at 12:35 PM Steve Cottrell <cotty@seeingeye.tv> wrote: > > The Gonzster!! Well as I live and breathe.

Sounds good mate! Enjoy. I’m refitting a sailing boat, hopefully get her back in the water next year. https://www.facebook.com/Contest33iris Good luck with the sales!

Yeah, posted some pics I got. https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjBkV5z Lots of clouds but we had a short break where we could see it pretty well.

Gonz !  how you doing? we only got 90% coverage here in the Apple but what there was "was choice" to quote an old Spencer Tracy movie line that popped into my head.  I didn't even attempt to photo but could see it from my living room window.   Terrific that you got a good view. HOWEVER regarding  the long list of gear.. the original list never appeared in my PDML folder - I got nothing between 4/1 and unitl 4/10  ..  Not that I could be a customer,  but you may want to send your list to the list again as I'm gussing I'm not the only one not to see  it.. best, ann On 4/10/2024 3:00 PM, Gonz wrote: > Yeah, posted some pics I got. > > https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjBkV5z > > Lots of clouds but we had a short break where we could see it pretty well. > > > On Wed, Apr 10, 2024 at 1:10 PM Larry Colen <lrc@red4est.com> wrote: >> >> >>> On Apr 10, 2024, at 10:57 AM, Gonz <rgonzomatic@gmail.com> wrote: >>> >>> Hi Cotty, good to hear from you.

I believe Cotty is selling gear to raise money to dump into a hole in the water.

Sadly, we don't have hundred pound notes. Probably soon... And our money is plastic these days. I've never actually tried but I suspect that it will not tear as easily as paper and, with wet hands, will be impossible to rip. And you know what they say about taking scissors into the shower.
