Buying a camera off of craigslist
« on: April 09, 2011, 04:02:43 PM »
Yesterday I saw a canon 40D with lenses for 450 bucks, seemed pretty cheap so I called the guy. He was just about to meet somebody that had offered him 425 and he was desperate for money so I asked a few basic questions about the camera and he had no idea how to answer the questions, I couldn't help but think that the camera was probably stolen. I like a good deal as much as the next guy but I hate funding a thief. How do you know for sure if something is hot?

I think you already answered your own question. He knew nothing about it and was desperate for money.

Real simple, see if he will sell it to you in the lobby of your local police department.

Great idea.
