It's where it says "Category: Music" that is odd

Maybe it's a song... "Flash, ah-haaaa, flash for a Pentax with a case"

I have persuaded myself it is worth a £15 gamble. Might have been better to buy 15 lotery tickets but I think it is worth a go.

The fact they will not answer a question through Ebay but will if you use their email address rings alarm bells.
Nothing in the Ebay system if it all goes pear shaped.

Still ...

And selling a £155 flashgun for £8.73 doesn't?

Well for a start the dimensions are all wrong.. it lists 8.1x3.5x2.8 - the flashgun is 11x7x11.5 (cm) and 4.3x2.8x4.5 (inches) according to pentax

I bought a set of "A" contact macro tubes along with a Pentax-F 50mm f1.7 the other week for £30 so who knows.
I would have taken a punt on the first auction as there were only 2 but now that he has added another 5 I'm going to pass.

I must admit to wondering why he is pricing so low if it is a scam though, yes £16 is a disposable amount to most people so they will have a go but many many more will be suspicious whereas if he priced around £60 he would probably sell more.

The dimensions are correct for the cardboard box.

But as they say "If something is too good to be true, then it probably is"!
