people who are enthralled with movie props buying up the flashes (I
think there's something about this on this site, film was S-W's?
can't imagine what the wand obe knobe held has to do with a flash
gun, something about emitting light, all too silly to follow up).
I've been looking at ebay but I have my doubts about buying used
cameras there. Of the four I bought, one was excellent, one was
misdescribed as to model (got $ back), one I haven't tried yet, and
one needed repair (seller offered to take back, but a hacker
repaired quite cheaply). Of course, camera stores rightfully want
to make a large profit on their occasional sales, so that's n.g.
Any other suggestions on where to purchase? Thanks again.
