They just don't fall off trees and hit you on the head. You have to work at it a little bit. But in both cases, I'd just assume that you and everyone else stayed away (nothing personal, mind you) << You're right. The bargains I found were things that had flaws. I bought a 28/2.8 Elmarit R. The seller said it had a slight mark on the glass. I didn't care. Few people bid so I got it for a great price. I cleaned the lens. Lo and behold the mark dissapeared. Also, ebay is a great place for odds and ends such as shades and filters. The real reason I stay away is that when I look for bargains other items catch my eye. I already have a long wish list. I don't need to add to it. David
