beware of this seller

[st0pandst4re]

What i always believe is that once the deal has been done stop complaining as its no one's fault in the end. The seller could have genuinely (and it has happened more than once before) mix up the camera's shutter count with the number of shots taken on the memory card. If you want to be 100% sure get a laptop and test it on the spot. anyways 17k isn't a lot.. you buy such good cameras to use and thus should have confidence in its shutter ratings of up to 100k (if i'am not wrong for that particular model).

Also if you are unhappy with the mark when the seller described it as mint.. you could have just simply walked away and not deal. of course the battery issue can't be helped until you actually charge and use it. Anyways just enjoy your camera and take more photos =) no point brooding over such minor stuff. cheers!

yes, just enjoy.. 17k is not a lot.. body got scratches, does it affect your photo? just ask yourself that.. yes, seller maybe wrong by stating wrong description, but as long as you can use it, why must we cry so much about it? for me, i always make it a point to expect the item to be of 2 points lower than the described.. so if it's mint, i will expect it to be 8.. or if it's 8, i will expect it to be at least 6..

thanks anyway for informing us about the seller..

Erm i think u added quite some salt and pepper into our conversation. 1st yes the condition was good and u agree, 2ndly i don't recall u pointing our any visible user mark and i'm pretty sure it has no user mark so u added that into it. 2ndly u mention nothing about my fren's 50D at all so please stop your bullshit by adding in false information.
Do u dare not admit u make up this story?
I said i think the sc is approx below 10 when u asked the 2nd time on that day itself.
If you would have ask nicely i don't mind refunding cause i bet SC 17k at 800bucks for a 50D there're still buyers wanting out there.
But since u added those "lies" into "our conversation. Seriously i have no comments to add on. You know best.

 

[RebelXsii]

And u did not ask me about the 50D charger thing. On top of that I did not mention the battery life span as i'm not sure of it as well. Most importantly you asked nothing about the battery life span of the camera. And you mind taking a picture of that scratch u were referring to? Cause i'm pretty sure that 50D of mine has no scratches in the view finder please. If you scratch it yourself and trying to put a blame on me... seriously u need to do your reflection. YOU CHECKED ON THE SPOT AND TOLD ME YOU WERE FINE WITH THE CONDITION right? You were praising the 50D yourself and i were telling you 7D and 1Ds series has a better grip than that.
The only fault that i admit here is the SC error accounted for in my thread. My bad. But the rest you made up yourself. I shall not comment on those lies u accuse me of.

 

[RebelXsii]

Lastly yes i posted 3 times on the 50D, one is my brothers unit. 50D the one you took and the other one which the last user mark on the bottom as i mention is not sold. Did u realised i mention the light user mark on 50D bottom which clearly there isn't in the 50D u bought? 2ndly the other 2 threads of mine one stated my brother's unit yes and the other did not cause i didn't mention who's unit at all.. just lazy to type out.. does that make a difference?

 

[RebelXsii]

lastly i said i was getting a 5D2 please clean your ears.

 

[RebelXsii]

yes, just enjoy.. 17k is not a lot.. body got scratches, does it affect your photo? just ask yourself that.. yes, seller maybe wrong by stating wrong description, but as long as you can use it, why must we cry so much about it? for me, i always make it a point to expect the item to be of 2 points lower than the described.. so if it's mint, i will expect it to be 8.. or if it's 8, i will expect it to be at least 6..

thanks anyway for informing us about the seller..

Hi Bayusuputra.
The camera has no scratches at all. He said he spotted in view finder but i've nv clean the view finder at all.
Thus i placed mint. The only point that went wrong is 17k sc. He mention nothing about my fren's unit and anyway my fren in the end decided not to sell his unit.
And according to my post in the BNS. I said the scratches was at the bottom and now he say it's at view finder? yet he claim is same unit?

 

[RebelXsii]

Next time test song song before you buy.

Hi i did not rush him and infact i mention to him that he can take his time to test the camera.
In fact he did not have a CF card thus i brought mine for him to test and even try bringing him to a camera shop to buy a cf card, at the end of our trade i even lead him the the busstop for a shorter ride home via bus rather den him taking train which take longer time.

 

[RebelXsii]

He did not point our the scratches as he mention in the forum and i did not force him to buy the unit. In fact i thought we had a good conversation until he started posting all this craps in this forum. I do not deny my fault in not checking the exact SC. Furthermore i did not mention the battery life span, not sure of myself and he did not ask anything about the battery life span.

The scratch ,Its at bottom of the live view lcd screen.battery cannot hold charge.at the top of ur post u say no scratch than now at the bottom of ur post u say scratch at bottom.i sms ask and u din bother reply

 

[RebelXsii]

Thanks for pointing that out as i find it retarded to blame the charger for blink as it needs to blink to indicate it's charging.
Lastly i do admit my fault for the wrong information about the SC as i mention to him clearly in our conversation that day it was an estimation. cause my bro has about 8k++ worth of photos taken with 50D since purchased.
