I am thinking about buying a digital camera on ebay and does anyone
have any advice for me. I've never had a good experience buying on
ebay. I know of people that have gotten good deals on ebay and I was
wondering what is the best method?
I am specifically looking at getting a canon powershot with 4.0
megapixels. What should be hints the camera I am looking at isn't a
lemon? Thanks! I just don't want to get ripped off because this is
for my fiancee
I have mixed emotions about e-bay. I have bought and sold many items there
and have been pleased most of the time. The problem I have is buying
anything that is used. I would never buy a camera or lens used because
there is a very good chance that the seller is getting rid of it because of
some problem that it has.
With a lens, there are always those that are not quite as good as others.
Even with a Canon "L" lens, you can get one that is not quite up to snuff
and the seller might be dumping it because of this. A good used lens sells
for almost the price of a new one anyway, so I will always go for the new
one from B&H.
