His problems are kind of a shame, because I think that a big part of the
reason that the K1000 was such an iconic student camera was its robustness.

Yeah, we had a stable of K1000s and some Ricoh K mount equivalent (no idea what model now) in our school; While there always seemed to be a few off for repair, I recall the photography teacher once saying "Notice how it's always the Ricohs that break down".

Ironically, I suppose your friend could say exactly the same thing these days...
