Okay, this has been bugging me for some time and now. I'm really steamed. I don't know why I'm more steamed now. Maybe it's because I'm at my computer with time to be steamed. Anyway, when I see cameras listed on Ebay that are body only and in another listing is the lens from the same seller, listed coicidentally, that I suspect was separated from the listed body, it just pisses me off beyond all measure. Can anyone give me a reason why this is an ethical practice? I try to be reasonable, but I was stung by this scheme with my first Spotmatic - never again. No lens, no sale, no way. That bloody body came with a lens. If the lens isn't included, I want to see the lens with a bullet hole in the center of it. Then, I'll understand. Otherwise, it just seems like a creepy, underhanded practice of double dipping just because parts are separable. Some day I expect to see a listing for a body only, no knobs or levers, and find these parts available under separate auction listings. Anyway, I just wanted to get that off my chest. I'm done now - feel much better. Am I alone in my opinion? thanks gang, Michael |
