It would probably need a service if it had never been used. I suppose it would be like a vintage bottle of wine, worth more unopened than drunk.

My local dealer had a mint Leica 11 from the early 30’s that had never been used. He bought it from the man who had bought it new but never used it.

I think I would want to open the sealed cover to take the camera in my hands and start using it!

That's the curse of sealed items... 😁... is a pity not to use a fine item... but who dares to knock down the value he has paid for ? 🙄

Well the camera is back from Ye and works great.   In addition to the  CLA he had to replace one of the shutter curtains and other than that the camera has a clean bill of health.    Finder is clean and clear and when i put a lens on it the rangefinder patch is very bright.  

Can’t wait to get out this weekend and shoot with it.

Thanks for everyone’s feedback.  I just decided to leave it original and may get a half case for it.
