Too good to be true? What do you think? -Nightshade |

It IS too good to be true, but the feedback, small though it is, is good and from seemingly reputable members. If you can pay with a credit card, instead of PayPal you have much better buyer protection, btw.

The reserve hasn't been met yet, and the auction still has a few days left. Trust me, that's nowhere near the final price.

My guess is around a 1000. At least. But that feedback that guy has is still at 95 percent...which means at one point in time he got someone pissed enough to complain a little. I personally don't buy something unless the seller is a perefect 99 or 100 percent.

I sold my GL1 over a year ago for $850 and it was still in great condition. In the information on the ebay page, it says the GL1 is in mint condition. Plus yeah the reserve has not been met yet. And 95% is really good; you have to keep in account that someone may have given a negative review due to miscommunication or something like it.
The seller has the opportunity to respond to negative reviews. I noticed that the person selling the GL1 responded to his negative comment. Anyway this is a lot of fluff, so I'll stop talking. Nathan Fackrell |

Its a great package, but you gotta realize that it is used. You have no idea how much wear it actually had. Years ago I bought a used camera on ebay, and two months after I got it, it started eating tapes and jambing up. The repair costs would have been outrageuos, so I just put the whole damn thing in my box of film props and scrap parts.
Try to avoid getting high end electronics from ebay, unless they are being sold by a store, new, and still have the boxes, and warranty cards. If you want a good deal, stick to reputable sites like BuyDig.com , Amazon, or B&H. --------------------------- Moviemakers Portal is back and better than ever. http://moviemakersportal.com http://JRMorgenProductions.com |

I was going to buy my GL2 off ebay, but found it at B and H for the same price, new in box, with the 250 buck rebate.
So not worth it to buy a camera used. Worth it to sell it to incompetent weiners once you're done with it though... |
