My guess is that the seller confused the pic ids when compiling the auction. 
Only one pic is of the Cosina CT1. You still should maul (sorry mail) the 
seller to check.

Kind regards

Peter

Re: new and different LX top plate

Jody,
Some jerks pilfer each others' auctions for descriptions, pictures,
everything. I've notified Stephen Gandy several times when people have
lifted descriptions of cameras directly from his CameraQuest web page for
their auctions. Recently I notified Gary Schloss that a seller had stolen
Gary's picture of a lens to use with his auctioncomplete with Gary's
very prominent copyright notice, right there in the picture field.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. The seller is still responsible for the
description, even if it's not original.

 Different sellers, different locations, and different
 LX - I hope. What is going on?

Yes, but...

1.The strap attachments are different from the other photos.
2.The LX ASA/Compensation Adjustment missing in this photo can be seen
in the other photos.
3.The rewind lever is different from the other photo.
4.The exposure compensation dial lock not present in the in the picture
in question is seen in the photo box above it.

It's a simple photo screw up.

Regards,
Bob...

 That's strange.
 The SS dial isn't right.  Looks like an MX.
 The shoe is non-dedicated.  Don't think there was one.
 But the front of the body is right.

 Looks like an LX modified/repaired with MX parts.

 Um,
 
 That top deck is VERY suspicious looking.  As a matter of fact, I'll
 go out on a limb, and say IT ISN'T AN LX!  There is no release button
 for releasing the exposure lock/viewfinder, there aren't enough markings
 on the shutter speed, the ASA indicator is in the shutter speed dial
 (isn't like that on the LX), and there is no provision for locking off
 the shutter button, AND the lugs aren't right, not to mention, the LX
 says LX right on the top, and this one doesn't.  Proof enough to be wary
 of this seller, at least without asking questions.
