I am getting to the conclusion that when buying
anything on e*ay it is best to choose equipment with
known flaws. Its description is usually honest, and
you are likely to get a good price.
I bought a 28/2.8 "pre-scratched" lens. If I had not
known in advance that the scratch would be there, I
probably would not have noticed. I paid about $30, I
believe.
Another example - OM-2 body with faulty meter. Took me
two hours to repair it. The cost ? About $20.
On the other hand, buying anything "in working order"
is a gamble. And if it just "appears to be working",
it should raise a huge warning flag.
