Two auctions are running on ebay with 5dc's having a defect shutter or mirror:

This one is shipped to Germany. I live in Switserland, but also have a german postal address, so I could bid on it and forward it. Maybe the owner would also send it to other countries if asked.

It's a tragedy.
Why don't we all ask around on our different forums and networks if anyone has an defect 5dc laying around that could be used for spare parts? Or maybe someone has kept a 5dc as a backup camera and is willing to lend it to this project or to sell it for a small price.

Please don' give up, Coutts and Alex, you are so close. I'm very excited about the prospect of getting ML working on my 5DC.
