I want to do an experiment at customizing a Holga. So, if you have one that you don't use and don't want, let me know. It doesn't even need to work, but it does need to have all the parts - though I don't know how it would not work if it has all the parts.

Anyhow, I don't care what model it is - a model with the flash would be great but I'll work with other models as well.

Not interested in any other Lomo camera, just a Holga for this project.

Lookin for somethin cheap cheap cheap, since I might end up ruining it by accident :cry and the new ones are pretty cheap to begin with.

    Thanks for the link, i'll keep that in mind for supplies. I have a Holga right now, top of the line! I just want a cheap one to do a project with, hoping maybe somone here got one because they thought it would be fun but then decided that shooting film is too expensive mwink.gif

    great prices on film at that link. awesome.

    Or am I totally missing the "used and cheap" section?

    How about this one: http://www.samys.com/product_detail.php?item=4893

    Isn't "Holga" and "Cheap" redundant? That's a big part of the attraction. So out of curiosity, what's the experiment? deal.gif

    That's regular price.

    When I say cheap, I mean like $10 - thats why i was saying used is fine, not working is fine.

    Basically I'm going to take it appart completely and paint it. however, I dont want to take appart mine that I use because if I mess it up or cant it back together I would be out a camera.

    If I can't find anyone who would rather sell it to me for $10 instead of give it to goodwill or throw it away, I will most likely end up getting a new one.

    Yep that link was. I assume you're getting a little more thorough than the Holgamods colored Holga option.

    It seems the silly cmaera is becoming a victim of it's own success, Samy's is the only place I can still see that has it near $20 (I paid $17 in store last year). Lots of greedy places have it for $40+ now. Sheesh.

    Good luck in your search. I'm keeping mine. :D
