This Teenager Bought $7,000’s Worth of Leica Camera Gear for Just $15 at a Garage Sale Without Realizing

Imagine unwittingly spending $15 at a garage sale on an old camera body and a couple of lenses and later discovering that you’ve bought some Leica gear that’s worth more than seven thousand dollars. Tyler, a 16-year-old from Detroit, Michigan has long wanted to start photography and decide to see what he could find at a local garage sale. Spotting a Kodak 35 and vaguely recognizing the name, he bought it for $3, overlooking the “fancy” looking camera sitting next to it.
