I haven't actually bought from them, but I have been
in their store. Seems to be a decent selection of
stuff... lots of medium format Pentax equipment.

Thanks. I have dealt with them too and would have no problem dealing
again. Thing is, a used MZ-S is not easy to come by, so I thought of
broadening the search.
