I sold my AF-100 and, somewhere along the way, lost the microphone clip (and parts, which include a couple of bolts). Naturally the person I sold it to want the parts … who could blame him for that? I did send a new Sennheiser mount (same as I use) but that’s not satisfactory because he needs the cold shoe for another component (nor would it be to me if I was expecting the factory part).
Long story, short . . . Panasonic gets something like $120-130 bucks for all necessary parts.
(which I’ll send right after hell freezes over). According to the manual the list it/them as: Microphone holder, Microphone holder screws (2), and Microphone holder adapter (probably adds value, thus the price).
I’m thinking that, given this is the same clip assembly on the DVX100, HVX200, HPX170, and AF100, that there might be at least one other individual out there who has/had no use for theirs and might be willing to give their up, and bail me out? (If you’re not one of these, no problem, I only need one).
Bottom-line: I feel bad because I want to cure the situation—the guys is entitled to get what he expected despite my little (honest mistake). I have already offered to send a return shipping label and refund his full purchase amount plus shipping). I’ve also begun to call around to see if any retailers have a used one laying around (struck out already with Spec-Comm, not finding anything on eBay either).
Anyhow, if someone can give me a little help here I’d more than appreciate it (probably name my next “first born” after you, etc., etc.). If so, let me know the damages . . .
Thanks in advance.
