Tips: do not declare value of parcel more than 100 euros!
Wrapping your package in paper and securing with packing tape deters pilfering and makes for a safer delivery.

What about turnaround time for repair? It may be different. Most time takes a postal delivery. One way delivery is 15-20 days normally. (Due to Covid it may be longer). I send parcels with tracking possible. Please, use trackable sending too.
But I do work within one week or so.
Some explanation about repair cost. As you can see prices are fixed. It mean you pay fixed price, and total for repair never exceed this price. It mean you will never get bad surprice like "ahh, camera is very bad inside and I need more money for my hard work". If camera had a hidden problem - it's my problem now. You pay fixed price for getting working camera back.
There is only two exceptions - if your camera have a missing exterior parts. Putting new parts for FSU cameras cost nothing, but some exterior parts for Contaxes and Leicas may cost additional money. Anyway, exterior parts are easy to see! You will see for what you pay.
And another exception - brand new selenium cell for Contax III. It's really brand new and it cost 12 euro.
