Several of the items he was selling such as his modular APO-Telyt system were well below market value. He priced them low in order to get quick positive feedback. I didn't just jump on the extender, I e-mailed the seller first and got a lot of information about him, why he was selling, checked his photo website and decided he was legit. Money sent, extender arrived in record time, I posted feedback before his other auctions ended. You know what they say about selling a Leica... eventually you'll buy it back. The seller now regrets selling his R system and begged me to sell the 1.4x APO back to him. Not going to happen :) Doug Herr Birdman of Sacramento http://www.wildlightphoto.com
