Looking for Nikon FM black body

Anyone out there with a Nikon FM body to sell (black only, NO chrome)? Cosmetics are unimportant as long as there are no major dings affecting function (brassing and nicks are ok, but a bent back that won't close properly isn't).

Meter should work, as well as hot shoe, and shutter speeds should be accurate. I realize that as an all mechanical camera 30 years old that shutter speeds of 1/250 and faster might be off a fraction of a stop. No problem.

Can pay via PayPal as needed. Just indicate your offer price. I don't need lenses, flash or other accessories, just the body.

If I find one elsewhere, I will reply to this post accordingly. Thanks!

Okay, it's yours if you want it. Here's a set a photos I just made:

As you can see, it's very clean. It's been a long time since I used it, but it shows no wear at all.

I saw recent sales on eBay between $69 and $100. How about $80 plus $13 for shipping?

I just best offered one on eBay for $40 plus ridiculous $10 for shipping (these bodies will fit in a Priority Mail box for $4.95 but eBay sellers charge too much). I should have the body in a few days, if it isn't functional I will let you know. Yours is cosmetically in better shape.

Well, I am back in the market again for an FM...if you still have yours, that is. I bought one on eBay for $40 with $10 shipping and paid on the 15th of last month, but the seller never shipped it (I think that he relisted it and sold it to someone else). Ebay got my $$ refunded, so I can purchase yours. I can't offer what you are asking, see if you can negotiate somewhat. I'll give you thumbs up, yours looks in fine condition from the photos.
