Ooops I bought an R9

I have been looking to buy an R9 for a long time but didn't quite find what I wanted in price and condition. A few days ago I found one in Switzerland and quickly clicked "But it now" equivalent in German :-) 

 

Now the waiting begins as the seller will only send it within Switzerland so I will have it sent to my Uncle and have him send it here, or I will have to wait until next time I'm over there. So it may be a while I get it in my hands to test it out and only hope that it's in as good a condition as the seller let me believe.

Congratulations. If it’s an eBay buy I’d be inclined to get hold of the camera ASAP in case there are any issues, there’s a limited window of opportunity to open a dispute IF it were necessary.

Oops! You've bought an R9???

 

There are no problems with this camera that I know of (and i've got four of them...). This is a solid and reliable camera... much more than the digital Leica offerings, which I am much more concerned about.
