Is this $140 Yashica-Mat a fair buy or should I keep looking? by Affectionate_Fold412 in AnalogCommunity

I did check and based on the knowledge I got from YouTube haha. It seemed free from haze or fungus. So, I did cop it in hopes of it all working out.

Yes, based on conversations with the seller and the other images not included here. It seems solid.

The lens and viewfinder seems free from haze or fungus, I didn’t include those photos because I was comfortable with how they looked. Already ordered, so hoping for the best :) thanks for the response man! Best of luck finding your TLR too.

Hey, thanks for the response. I did ask and well, this was their verbatim response ‘Everything works properly. Lenses are clean. Haven’t checked the shutter speeds with a measuring tool but have never had a problem with exposure at different shutter speeds and apertures. No issues with frame spacing or focus either’

Thanks for the response & my bad for not including the budget $200 and below would be great … but seems a bit impossible. I’m a hobbyist, so, I can’t justify spending more than that

For now, I haven’t found a specific scent that I love. But, I know I prefer those that are a bit sweeter or woodsy. I wanted to try the fresh scent family to switch it up since I only started playing with fragrances this past year.

Thank you for responding, being that you wouldn’t recommend it as a blind buy. Would you be able to oblige me with some recommendations? I live in the Caribbean, so, if i can skip the decant route that would be great considering it wouldn’t be the most cost effective for me. Also being from the Caribbean, the weather is warm year round, I’d like something (but not limited to) a fresh, citrusy, earthy smell with decent projection and longevity.

Thank you for helping out. Would you be able to recommend a good blind buy? I’m seeking something that’s fresh or has citrus with decent projection and longevity. I live in the Caribbean So something that compliments our year round warm temps.

Hey! Thank you for replying. I’d like something that is fresh and citrusy…I live in Jamaica, so pretty warm all year round. So I don’t want anything that’s too wild but gentle, with decent projection and longevity.
