<p>[QUOTE="EyeEatWheaties, post: 988881, member: 26972"]yeah - that's another thing when selling. Never say no returns accepted.

I found a body with a lens, battery and charger absolutely nothing else. Seller had BIN at $650 auction starting at $500 no bids, auction ending in a few hours. 1 pic of body. 1 pic of lens. one sentence description. eBay auto filled all the tech stuff. Shipping$10 - No returns!</p><p><br /></p><p>I message the seller asking "why no returns - what is the matter with the camera?" , he said he didn't want the hassle - nothing wrong with camera. I asked him the story behind the camera and the number of shutter clicks. Turns out only 1000 clicks! Auction closed with no bids while we were messaging. A couple days later I asked if he would sell at $550, he said no $600. I was like what? "If i had bid 500 I would have won it.." etc etc he said, with all the interest he was going to stay at 600.. I asked him, what interest? Turns out he had relisted it while we were going back and forth and was now accepting returns. </p><p><br /></p><p>I ended up winning the camera, for 575 against 8 other bidders. The camera is practically brand new! The point is. what is the point lol[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
