The best camera is one that still works!
There is something a little strange here ... when you go to the auction page and click on sellers items for sale it comes up with zero! The same if you back track to his user name? Could just be something with eBay glitches but it is odd!
Someone else ... check?

Keith: That isn't happening for me. I think it's something with your browser/cache unless, as you suggested, there was an oBoy glitch.

I've seen this before. It's not your setup, it's the countries in which he's listed it for sale. Since I'm viewing on the US site, I see it listed in his "other items for sale." But I followed a link someone gave to an auction in Europe a while ago which was not listed in the US. I found the item and, as I recall, I replaced "ebay.de" with "ebay.com" so I'd see the eBay parts of the page (the parts the seller hadn't written) in English. I then looked for the seller's other items and the item itself wasn't listed. I don't know if that's exactly what's happening for you, Keith, but it sounds like it. Did you look at it in "ebay.au"? (Try "ebay.com" and see what happens.)
I understand that eBay keeps all of its sales in one database. (Must be one big database!) So you can bring up an item that's not listed for your country by explicit reference to the auction number, but when something like the "other items" link goes to the DB to find out what else the seller has up, the routine just reports those items listed for your country... or so it seems.

Ahh ... that was it, I logged on to the US site and it lists ... thanks for that!

I emailed with regards to this item and the seller said there was no way he could provide more pics. Scared me away.

Wow ... I watched the end of the auction and the camera jumped from $525 to $980 (sale price) in 30 seconds flat. At a grand that's some risk considering the vague description and poor pics!

For what its worth the seller identified the lenses as a 5cm Elmar & a 3.5cm Summaron 3.5, & said they were in "grade a" condition. I admit to putting in a bid, but nowhere near the ending price though..

I wanted to bid, but when it went over 500 USD I stepped out. I doubt the seller got an exc- / A-grade set.Film dino said:For what its worth the seller identified the lenses as a 5cm Elmar & a 3.5cm Summaron 3.5, & said they were in "grade a" condition.

I guess it helps being vague...
