MWTS: Minolta Dimage A1

yinkhoon · 4th January 2004

Very new Minolta Dimage A1 just bought in Nov 2003. Plus a brand new slim 49mm B+W UV filter MRC (Multi-resistant Coating) worth $109, specially ordered from Cathay Photo, to ensure best quality protection with no vignetting.

Pls indicate your best offers here. I found PMs confusing and a hassle to reply to each individually. Will also prefer to sell to genuine end-users rather than to dealers or traders, no offense, but just personal perference, so pls kindly respect, with thanks.

May I know why you want to sell the camera? Is the camera in good condition without scratch?

yinkhoon · 7th January 2004

Yes, the camera is in tiptop condition. No scratches. I only used it twice! Thinking of selling it because honestly I found myself still prefer the optical viewfinder of my SLR, and ok, the sound of the mirror slapback.

webstop · 7th January 2004

Ok, I start off with $988.

Cursor · 7th January 2004

My question still have yet to be answered.
But anyway, I offer $1000 for the camera and filter.

webstop · 8th January 2004

$1010 then.

skf · 8th January 2004

up the ante: $1050

webstop · 8th January 2004

More people more fun then, $1060. Anyway, is there extra memory card, or just 16 MB in the box?

Ya the happiest one will be the seller...
me $1070. So is it just the camera package alone with the filter? Any other extra stuffs?

yinkhoon · 9th January 2004

Hi all. Thanks for interest so far, and sorry for slow response as I do not go online everyday.... To answer queries so far, no there's nothing else extra than what comes in the box, apart from the filter. I bought the A1 just before the offer bundle comes out.

But you can get cheaper, faster and biggger compact flash cards from Eastgear anytime, whereas I had to order the B+W UV MRC filter from Cathay and waited one month for it.

skf · 9th January 2004

up the ante one more time:
$1100

anybody else higher out there??

webstop · 13th January 2004

Has it been sold? 1.1k a bit on the high side for me though.

I withdraw my bid; its been 1 week and no response ...

yinkhoon · 20th January 2004

Opps sorry for slow response. $1100 is too low for me to let go of the A1... thanks for interest anyway.
