trying to convert a camera into film

[blanka]

hello super 8 dudes

im getting rid of my trusty 6008s to try to raise enough money to get the stock for my next film project.

I hate having to part with it but times is hard.

with all your collective experience of selling cameras on ebay, can you tell
me if the ad is ok?

thanks

hey, I wish every ebayseller did it your way. I almost wanna buy that camera, even though I have no money and no need for it (being the happy owner of an x-sync´d 4008 zmII bought on ebay). Very sympathetic indeed.

thanks man, i thought i would be as honest as possible, dont know if its a good ebay tactic, but it leaves my conscience clear.

Yes it is a good ebay tactic to be honest with a piece of equipment like this, because most potential buyers know their stuff and are *looking* for an honest vendor who can tell them about the recent history of the camera and how it operates.

I'm tempted to put in a bid myself

as a general rule, i think its wack to get up to petty dis-honesty and law breaking, far better to save all that karma up for a big ol bank job or
major evil doing.

well in a depressing turn of events i got one bidder, and 6 days later
i got a mail from ebay telling me not to deal with the buyer as he was under investigation for fraud.

bahhhhhhhhh

at least the suns out

in a uplifting turn of events i have finally got my timelapse tripod working,
its a gearhead with a stepper motor on it and it turns the camera real real slow for tasty timelapse action.

will post some of the results when they are back.
