I have up for sale my wonderful Panasonic LX-3. I bought it from B&H last November but just don't use it enough. I think this is the best small camera on the market (however I'm a large format kind of guy--need to sell to pay for my new 8x10...)
Here are a few picts:

My price is $450 firm + postage and paypal. Postage is at actual cost, of course--no "extra" mark-up for "handling fees."
I'll keep an eye out for PMs and e-mail--whatever I see first is first in line.
Condition: Most posters would just call this "excellent" and leave it at that. However I've found that I prefer to "over describe" the condition of the things I sell--puts some doubt into inexperienced buyers but on the other hand it does away, in my experience, with all sorts of problems arising from different expectations between buyer and seller.
With that in mind here is what I see when I look closely. On several of the edges, if you look closely, the paint has rubbed of. This may be difficult to see sometimes--the edge may look good from the front but the missing paint may be visible from the bottom, on the same edge. Look at the rounded edge near the tripod socket. You'll also see tiny pin points at the top of the grip and around the rim of the lens assembly and another edge rub (visible only from the bottom) along the bottom edge of the lens assembly.
All of this is easily fixed/hidden by a minute with a black marker, but I thought it best to let the buyer take care of it so they know exactly what they are getting.
Finally, there is a very minor, small scuff on the screen. It is faint and difficult to photograph but you can see it in the image that shows the bottom of the camera. Look at the left, bottom area of the screen, just above the white-ish glare. You'll see a faint, rounded "something" there. That's the rub mark.
I've provided large pictures so you can see things in detail. Hope I didn't scare you off by getting so "micro" about the condition!
The camera is from a non-smoking environment, traveled in a padded Crumpler case (not included), and has not seen all that much use. Comes with the OEM battery and one off brand extra battery(from B&H). The lens cap didn't make it into the picture but it is included, of course.
That about covers it!
If you have any questions just let me know.
