buying cameras on eBay..waste of time?
I'm totally at a loss. Following my posting about D SLRs, I have spent hours watching people pay almost the full amounts for cameras that they will have to wait for...sweat on ever getting them, often have no guarantee...etc etc.
A nice Nikon D70 fetched nearly a grand US and was over a year old. More Canon Rebels than you can shake a stick at are fetching 80% of the full price. An established NY dealer has them at 879 less mail in of 75. Some folk are paying more than this for used.
A D70 that had been dropped and did not go, fetched well into the 3 hundreds and even after such a risk it is still ‘only' a 6mp
A few times the accessories make up for the high cost, but not always.
Obviously I have drawn my own conclusions, but is it just a glitch or do people prefer used kit?
