Bidder or buyer from here

Already noticed it and was glad I bought one last week at €125 at a photoshow. With the original carry strap and softbag. Just clean-out the sticky foam in the door ridges and go.

I wonder if this genuine bidding or maybe the shillbidder(s) forgot to stop and nobody topped their lure-rally.

and its not even mint..!! not that it would be worth that much even if it was brand spankin new.

The strap has on one end a metal plate with a screw which goes into the tripod thread. The other end goes through the slit at the end of the grip. The handstrap has to go of course
The camera is then in a upright position. Lens up.

The softbag fits tightly around the camera. Especially suitable when it hangs from the shoulder using the carry strip. condition is nice considering so many of these 30 year old softbags turn into craquelé artpieces.
Maybe there is something like these neoprene/diving suit laptop sleeves? Crumpler or the likes. May cost as much as the camera Although it would be a Vuitton thingy for the eBay camera

aj, thanks for the info. if you ever find another one of the original softbags on your travels, i would be happy to buy one from you

Look at item's "Q&A" and read about 'high bidder's money' :mrgreen:

[aj]

And again already on $400.

What restrictions does he mean? Bidder history, bidder geographic-location or something else?

Some sellers seem to think crooks and idiots come from other countries. This while their own country has the largest percentage by far of people who are in jail Or would that be because judges convict people more frequently because they get paid by the jail-owner for every new guest.

Oh, you heard that story, eh? News gets around. But that was just teenagers-- they have no rights here anyway .

A Canon C8 wide 43 for $249???

Don't think you would get close to that even for the much more desirable C8 wide 67, but maybe someone on the 'lunatic fringe' will go for it???

[gahoona]

yeah. but, it does come still in a box. quite an expensive box though. certainly wouldnt let the kids play in it
