Where can I buy cheap vintage film cameras here in tokyo?

Question:

I know there is akihabara but I don't know where exactly in there. I need something cheap and still working. Or you can also give me websites that sells used film cameras.

Answer:

As you say, you know about Akihabara. And knowing Akihabara, you also know that trying to give directions to some small out of the way shop, (even if someone knows of one), would be like trying to shove a strand of overcooked spaghetti up a wild cat's butt in a dark room. It's just like when I needed some piece of electronics for something I was making...... I just wandered around Akihabara looking through the shops.

An alternate method would be to try Yahoo!Auction. This necessitates knowing the type of camera you want though. The Canon F1 is a nice film camera. I can remember maybe 10-15 years ago when a nice one would set you back 100,000 yen. I've seen body and lens for around 20,000 yen on auction. Here's a link for Fuji EDX for a 3,200 yen with no bids and one day left on auction.
