this is a serious request. show me your tired, beat up, scratched, dinged, dented, marred 300d rebel, and i'll buy it. it *must* work perfectly, but i want a rebel that is a real p.o.s.

this is the camera that nobody's gonna buy, folks, but i'm buying it.

so, how about it?

this is a serious request. :deal

    How much do you wanna pay? I will be glad to go and run over mine with the car right now, if the price is right?

    If that is not good enough, I could use Bill's van to completely decondition it.
    The toilet, I could flush it.

    There is no end of my imagination of the things I would do to make my 300D worth enough money to you.

    Me, I need at least 1500.00............ But I promise to do a good job of trashing it, both literally and figuratively.

    Good Lord, and he hasn't been lately, IMHO, but nevertheless..........

    If I don't get 500.00 minimum for my 300D, it ain't goin' nowhere.

    Then I will have 3 cameras. The two SLRs, great, a wide on one, a long on the other, and weary bill to carry (the stuff). And I will have my old S230. Oh, I do have an already broken S100 camera..........all these are Canons. (On the S100, I am waiting for it to become a collectable, lol.) That will be 4 cameras, and three lenses, I think.

    Hey Andy, came across this looking for a 20D. Thought you might be interested.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=43454&item=3862749072&rd=1

    Sorry about that. I saw POS and thought it doidn't matter if it worked or not. There are several on e-bay and I'm not sure if you would be interested but I came across this one as well

    Andy;
    From what you told me I would think almost any dcam or dslr would be sufficient. Unless you are planning to do the work in the CRW conversion process, why not use an EOS D2000 (DCS520) or a D30 or any other canon mount dslr.

    I'm very curious as to what your plans are. I guess I'll put one of my good luck dollars on IR modified 300D.

    Where's wxwax? I bet he could nail this one for us :D

    yes, i'm serious. i want the camera nobody will buy. it must work, and work like new. but it's got scratches, on the lcd, it's been dinged up, and it's otherwise unsightly. perhaps your toddler teethed on it - that's ok with me! maybe your dog "played" with it for a little while? no problem!
