Advertisement Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Hi lct, Take a look here M8.2 special edition?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jaques Posted January 5, 2012 Share #22 Posted January 5, 2012 I bought mine second hand- but like new- it had only shot 400 pictures and not a mark on it. I Purchased it from a private individual in Bangkok... Must say I absolutely loved the finish- I could never understand why they didn't offer the M9 in black chrome- and still don't even with the M9-p?

lct Posted January 5, 2012 Share #23 Posted January 5, 2012 Thanks so you don't know if it was new as is do you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaques Posted January 6, 2012 Share #24 Posted January 6, 2012 I'm pretty sure it was new as it only had 400 actuation- and had not been registered with Leica yet. I was able to register it and get my two free filters. Every indication was that it was straight out of the factory- in the box with all packaging etc and totally mint condition... I seriously assumed black chrome was absolutely standard for the m8.2 and never realised it wasn't until I saw this thread.... can't believe I sold it now...
