Under $100? Maybe you should try a Holga (not a rangefinder per se)... no battery and can go to whatever iso your film is rated to. And can fit into the pocket of your cargo pants, any other pocket and it might be mistaken for something else.
get it off ebay.
i paid for a yashica electro gsn in extremely great shape for SGD$48, inclusive of shipping from the US.
or you could try Sungei Rd.
Wow I just checked ebay. There's really a lot of good stuff there. Thanks for introducing!
no probs. just be really careful and ask tons of questions.
as for bidding, bid only when the auction is about to end. e.g last 15 seconds or something, key in the maximum amount you're willing to pay, and not just the amount that will win the previous bid because everyone else bids during the last 15-30 seconds also. haha. so you really need the automatic bidding system to win.that's how i got my yashica haha. was kinda lucky. last 15 secs i keyed in a winning bid of 20USD, and at about 5 secs, someone keyed in a 19.99 bid, but automatic bidding helped me keyed in my final 20USD bid and i won. lol.

Wah...but keeping track of time during the last 15 seconds is quite tough leh....must use stop watch. And if your broadband suddenly slowdown due to high traffic, that's it! You've lost it!
haha. won't be so sway la. haha just open two windows, one already logged in and ready to key in your winning bid, the other to keep refreshing to see the time left for the auction.
won both my lubitel 166b and yashica that way.
