I got mine for free, from my Grandad and it's in great shape. I love it but there are caveats:
1) You have to trim the leader of the film and it's quite difficult to load.
2) The focusing viewfinder is quite hard to use (the mirror in the parallax focus is dull and doesn't produce a clear projection).
3) While I really like it, the cost to me was nothing - it's a big outlay of cash otherwise.
4) Old people will approach you a lot when you're using it.
I love it. I don't mind the minor issues. I didn't pay for it.
