A 120-film insert, if not included, would be useful,

as would a return guarantee for defect in the gear, refused

by the seller when I inquired. Without this, this outfit

may, or may not, be a good deal sight-unseen... The old

Mamiya 645 SLR gear was excellent-quality, and many of

these 25-30 year old cameras still see service, but

without a guarantee that all is still working properly,

you must judge whether or not to take the risk, and

possibly to add repair costs to the purchase price...
