Patch gave me a great deal on the Eye-One. It was new, came to him as part of a package, so I benefitted from something he didn't need. Easy transaction, no hassles.

it's a pleasure doing business with ann, a canadian buyer who pays me in yank not loonies ann wired u.s. funds to my bank swiftly and as promised. i'd do business with ann, any day of the week.
praise for lark username: lark item: Canon 200mm f/1.8 lens
lark is a great buyer. excellent communications, makes fast decisions, commits and pays up. he sent me certified bank of america funds for this transaction, speedily (fedex). it was a substantial transaction >$3,000 and i would highly recommend doing business with lark. he's a credit to our forum!
Comments: transaction went very well from my perspective - my first time ever buying anything that needed shipping. andy was extremely patient with me as I was preoccupied with a cat in a tree and trying to get him money by wire transfer. the lens arrived today, packed extremely well, and all in one piece. if I could quit jumping up and down, I'd put it on the camera and take a shot or tow. soccer season starts next week, so be prepared....
I would definitely recommend doing business with andy.
praise for patch29 username: patch29 item: Canon 1Ds
patch is a fine seller - i'd recommend buying from him anytime. he described his camera in great detail, we worked out a deal, and he shipped me the camera, securely packaged, and it arrived exactly as promised and in the condition (excellent) as described. i highly recommend patch as seller
I made a great purchase. Shay said that the camera was in excellent condition, but this thing looks as though it was never taken out of the box. He let me arrange my own shipping, and when I opened the box, everything was packed as if I had just received it brand new straight from Canon.
Purchased a Lowepro filter case from Andy. Transaction was smooth as silk. Andy is a great seller, and I wouldn't hesitate to do business with him again.
Sung to the tune of Gilligan's Island Username: tlittleton Item: Canon 10D DSLR
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
a tale of a smooth transaction.
That started from an ebay ad,
and this very forum.
tlittleton was a mighty buying man,
he was very brave and sure.
seven days of bidding were ahead of him,
for seven real long days, seven real long days………
The bidding started getting rough,
tlittleton's bid was tossed.
If not for his courage and fearless bidding,
the 10D would be lost; the 10D would be lost.
The bid was won and the 10D was shipped via fedex
The box was sent safe and secure over land and in the air,
with our fedex, in thick cardboard,
the styrofoam, and air bags,
the inner box, the safe 10D and accessories,
here comes tlittlton!!!!!!
And for those not musically inclined. tlittleton is a great buyer, fast payer, and I would work with him anytime.

Seller: Windoze - Troy
Item: Canon 50mm f/1.8 II
I need a new lens
I'm holding out for a good lens 'til the end of the night
It's gotta be clean
And it's gotta ship fast
And it's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a new lens
I'm holding out for a good honest person I trust
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
For the musically challenged, Windoze - Troy is a great seller, the item came quick, packed safe, and as described. Would do business with him anytime, anywhere.

Easy to call, no "30 minutes on hold".
The brollybox I ordered came with a broken spoke. The lady immediately offered to ship another one free of charge, and since I mentioned the time issue (my original order was 2d day air) she said they will ship overnight. And no need return of the broken one..:-)
I'm very satisfied with the whole thing.
Comments: Great seller and fast shipping. The lens were just as described, near new condition. Shipped with lots of bubble and protection. Will buy from again.
