I just got ripped off on ebay. This guy sold me a GL1 with a fried firewire chip.

Assuming he doesn't refund my money, I'm going to try to sell it on ebay as a studio only camera.

Given it's condition, what do you think this could go for on ebay?
 
Dude that sucks. Not sure what to say for price.

Pookie, is this: Cadwch Cymru yn lan. Danfonwch y sbwriel i Loegr! Welsh? To my semi-trained eye it would appear to be, though it may very well be another Celtic variant.

A very good eye indeed.
 
if he sold you a camera he's probably using that money to buy a new camera. find out what camera he wants, post that camera up at a comparable or slightly higher price than he sold you the GL1 for (as a different user of course), then when he buys it off you, send him back the GL1. Game over.

Someone needs to put the kiddies to bed.
 
I couldn't even sell my Vx2000 for $1000 and it came with a case, a fisheye lens, a tripod, and a cheap mic. Ebay sucks. You always get what you pay for, thats why I always buy everything brand new from evs or B and H.

Sounds like a good idea but He'll remember your address.
 
c.g. - that's a good idea, if he tries to stiff me, maybe i'll try that.

anyway... i paid $900.

i'm really irritated with the whole thing. i'm going to save for a dvx as soon as i get my money back and buy it from b&h. in the meantime, anyone wanna buy a gl1 with a broken firewire chip?

i was thinking, if he refunds me a few hundred and lets me keep it, i could get a cheap minidv cam for transfering, but would i not get the full image quality of the gl1 during the transfer if i used a cheaper camera? that should probably be an obvious answer, but i'm new to this stuff...
