Listed on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114800666423 - only 2000 of these made I believe - would cancel the auction if a private sale agreed and no bids received...shed loads of watchers but suspect they'll bid at the last minute as always.

Hi John
I'll give you £950 for the kit, ebay youd pay 18% so my offer is better..
Cheers

I too was going to offer £900 but then the car got advisories on its MOT - Your camera money went on four new tyres! (it was me that asked you about warranty and where you'd purchased it from).
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

That would be true Bruce based on a couple of assumptions - one that I'll only get the minimum listing price and two that I'm paying full ebay fees.

I'm on an 80% off FVF deal with ebay so the charges are less than £30 if it sells on this auction run...ask me again after Sunday if you like when the auction finishes if it isn't sold as I think I lose the 80% off deal then I might be more open.

Normally I wouldn't comment on an auction, however, I'd suggest re-wording this part of the listing: 'The k-1 is a full frame 36 megapixel camera with pixel-shift functionality that can increase image size by four' - it can't.
