FYI, just bought a supposedly good X-700 on ebay for $68.00 total
cost. Came with a couple lenses, but will take mine too.
Thanks again for the advice. I had already started to look for a
repairman for my 102, but you sobered me up.


If that's an SRT 102 you're talking about Garry's can refurb it for about $50.

The 102 is a camera worth fixing too.


Yes, it's an SRT 102. In researching a while back I read that aging
leather and other non-metal parts can make them pretty expensive to
fix properly. It's 34 years old now, and has recorded many, many
memories. I might decide to give it a new lease on life yet.
Just don't want to give it up.
Whoa, Garry's is not more than 5 minutes from me!
Hey Jeff, thanks a lot!
