Unfortunately I bought the camera outside of eBay when the original auction "winner" mysteriously quit as an eBay member without completing the transaction. So I do not have any comeback through eBay unless I report sebsandiego for trading outside eBay. Paypay are not interested because it was over their 45 days limit for claiming by the time I'd discovered the camera was fake. I will try Consumer Direct but I have only a hotmail account address for sebsandiego - nothing else.
The expert I sent it to does not repair Kievs. I could send it to Oleg Khalyavin in Russia.....but then would have racked up about £200 on a camera worth almost nothing. I am particularly cross because I bought the camera to give to my elderly father as a Christmas present after his trusty 1937 Contax was stolen in a burglary.
