It is generally frowned on to post WTB or other types of ad's on this website, this is an informational only website, you might try looking at the graflex section on http://www.southbristolviews.com they have a place you can post this type of stuff.

If this doesn't get deleted...

Try Jim at mpex.com.

Just be alert. I bought a 210 cam from him last year. Turned out to be a reground surface and about 1mm short of reaching infinity. Of course they took it back... I nevr did find out if he got new ones in or not, and if you do order one from him, I'd appreciate knowing if they have them and if they are actually good this time...

I asked Jim ofcourse, but he can not find any at this moment

The only other possible resource would be Fred Lustig.

By the way, you didn't mention if this was for a Pacemaker Speed or Super Speed; different cams...

Good luck in your search!

And a P.S. If you're desperate and short of time, you can make one yourself. I've done this for the 210 cam for my Super using the pic of cams from my website. If you search about the forums you can find discussions about it. Not all that difficult if you have one good cam, some files and cutters, and maybe a scanner to make pics 1:1 in size. Just don't use hard metal (tin can) for the cam material. You don't want to wear a groove in the RF arm...
