getting camera to Joe, surplus funds

[FrankS]

Here's my latest info:

the camera, 35mm lens and hood total $2212

money collected = $825(popflash) + $1785(paypal) = $2610

gross surplus = $400

Tony will cover the shipping (info from Josh)

Joe will require $200 for taxes/customs to make everything legit

net surplus = $200

I spoke with Jorge, and he says that at the moment the RFF site is okay.

I'm thinking that the $200 extra should go to Joe for a filter and some film.

What do you guys think?

What about adapters so Joe can use his Canon lenses on the ZI? Someone suggested that yesterday.

Good idea, RJ.

$200 for filter, lens adaptors, film

I had a suggestion but in the interest of taking the high road and low heart rates, I'll agree w/FrankS and say use the surplus for film.

Sounds perfect to me - the only thing missing is a very big thank you to FrankS for conceiveing/coordinating this great idea - Thanks Frank!

Yes. Frank, you are the man with the plan.

This is all resolved at this point. Frank announced the resolution on another thread. (1/2 to Joe and 1/2 to RFF)

I'd go with whatever Frank says...and thanks again, Frank, for an excellent idea. Ignore those who think otherwise (money changes everything-and everyone).

Hear, hear! Frank, you conceived and pulled off an extraordinary gesture of thanks. Now our thanks to you!

BTW, Frank, do you do hire out for birthdays? 😀

Birthdays, no. I'm a wedding planner on the side. 😉 ha, ha, joke.
