Canonet QL-17 GIII is a very nice camera, but as others will confirm, it is probably more difficult to work on than some other models. When working they are very good cameras, but buying a possibly broken one is risky unless you have considerable expertise in repairing cameras in general and some experience with this model in particular. There are some good guides on web pages that you can find with a Google search... but consider paying a bit more to buy one that works, or buy at a place where you can return it if it doesn't work. I've paid from $5 to $40 or so for QL-17 GIII's, and have gotten broken ones at both ends of the cost range...
