Camera condition

Hi folks,

many thanks for your participation. It is good to see that it's not just our view that this item is below par and so we'll see what the vendor does about it. In fairness, I intend to keep their identity quiet until they have a chance to respond - hopefully it was a simple error and they'll rectify it quickly.

So again, thanks and it's nice to engage the reach of the 'net hopefully for the good of us poor consumers! :-)

Cheers,
Dave E (Sydney)

Disgraceful.

If there's no better education than one from the school of hard knocks, than this camera has deservedly graduated with honours.

I'd be ashamed of myself if I just let a camera get to that state, let alone try to sell it on to a fellow enthusiast as being in "excellent" condition.

Hope you get some satisfaction from the vendor. If not, please let us know the details so the rest of us can give them a wide berth.

Beaten camera

Honestly, I think this is off the charts, obviously on the low end. With the damage that is evident, there is no way that "fair" can justifiably be associated with it.
