I'm a bit late in getting to this, but I was the lucky boy who snapped up his beautiful Minolta XG-M complete with 50/2 lens. Great communication, packed and shipped fast, and a fantastic camera gotten at a fantastic price. Thanks, Jon.
Thomas-Michael was a pleasure to deal with, great communications, fast payment, couldn't have asked for a better gentleman to deal with. Now if we could only just get rid of customs ;-) Thanks and enjoy the M2.
Time I added something to this thread. I've now bought from and/or traded with meakin, mike richards and pfogle with nothing but positive experiences to report.
I shipped off a filter to him last week, no trade and not a lot of $ money involved. Instead of going the Paypal route, which would involve some fees, I exchanged the filter for a small web gift certificate to amazon.com. Not a lot of $ like I said, but free to buyer and seller from fees, and always useful.
A good idea and another way to make trade work here.
Phil brought me much joy with his express mail-order pancake. Generous, very easy to deal with, arrived early, well-packed and mint just like he said. If tries out and thinks better of any other lenses I covet, I'd PM him in a heartbeat.
I recently bought a Bessa R2 + 35/2.5 lens from TorontoTom. He was an excellent communicator who patiently answered all of my questions (boy did i have a TON of them 🙂 ) and even gave me his phone number to finalize the "deal." Even having to deal with international shipping and the amount of time it takes (he's in Canada, I'm in US, I sent a money order, he sent regular Canadapost), things went off without a hitch. The camera is in the same condition as the seller described it to be. Man i love this camera! Thanks tom!
Yesterday received the black Bessa-T from Patrick (pbjbike), really kind and helpful, ultra fast answers, a pleasure to deal with, camera just as advertised and great advice on shipping method (camera body traveled USA-Spain in 4 days for $15 !!!)
