RE: Eclair ACL Les Bosher's work



It was just the Konvas 1M body, no mags or motor or anything. Weighed about 10 pounds. Insured for about $1000 IIRC. Sent by global priority mail, cost under $60.

I just sent a camera body with two 400' mags via FEDEX across country,
insured for $4500. The bill was about $100. The weight of the package was 25
lbs.

Exactly what did you ship, how much did it weigh packed, and how much
insurance coverage did you have on it?
