I've been buying and selling on Ebay since it started and have only been ripped off once. I only use PayPal as its the safest way for the transaction to happen.

Post by: cagifford on May 28, 2010, 10:42:26 AM: thanks for the replies... I think I got sucked in by the number of items included and forgot about quality for a little while. I passed on the deal because none of the accesories are worth much of anything. I am now leaning towards a new Rebel XS or similar camera so atleast Its new even if its not "proffesional" quality.
