Hi,

I sold a guy in NYC a Plaubel Makina 670.  When it arrived, one of the strap
lugs was detached from the camera.  They are held on with a screw through
the body of the camera, and the screw apparently snapped.  The good news, is
this didn't happen to either me or the buyer while the camera was on the
strap!

Anyway, I contacted:

Nippon Photo Clinic Service
920 Broadway At East 21st St
New York, NY 10001
212-982-3177

who is said to be a Plaubel Makina repair guy...but he wanted $400 to
replace the screw.  That is of course absurd.  Perhaps it was Yen.

Anyway, does anyone have any recommendations for someone in NYC who I can
contact and talk about replacing the screw on this camera strap lug?

Thanks,

Austin
