Not necessarily what you would expect but worth ogling the pictures:

The postage would break my piggy bank! :shock:

Wow the price is going up a bit more than I expected on this, I suppose it does have an F3 with it, though I wouldn't have thought they were worth that much these days...

A collector's war, I'd guess, unless somebody's buying it for the back-illumination system.

I'm sure the equipment will take excellent pictures, but check out the optics: a 50 mm f2.8 El-Nikkor enlarging lens, apparently not even reversed as shown. (There's probably a reversing ring someplace in the package.)

For normal front-lighted work, a few minutes putting together some eBay purchases would take the same excellent pictures for a fraction the cost.
