Sounds like you got a deal. It's one I was looking at (also in red) but trying to justify the price of it over some of the others. I'll be interested to hear how you get on with it if you care to share.

Fuji X100.
A queer fish, in that it manages to be utterly brilliant in some respects, and at the same time totally carp in others.

I've an X100s, love it in the right circumstances, the evf is superb and the manual control is excellent plus full flash sync at all shutter speeds.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Yep, I googled it and am still unsure.
Knew after 10 secs I could buy one, 20 mins later and still didn't know how it works. 🤪🤪🤪

Pentax A 20mm f/2.8 sold as in good condition.
Unfortunately arrived with fungus patches on two different elements, haze/condensation and also a stiff focus ring that needs regreasing. Oh and the aperture mechanism has tons of play in it so won't fully open the aperture - so that'll need repairing too.
I'm just going to send it back. Definitely not worth the hassle, maybe even at half the price I paid.

A shame. It is a very good lens although I don't use mine very much now as the FA version tends to get used most of the time.

Canon PIXMA TS9155, the HP printer has started skewing the paper during loading.
In red? Nice! Why that one over one of the cheaper ones?
Yes Red. It had a LAN connection, so Margaret's laptop can use it as well. I thought the deal I got was a bargain for the sake of some damaged packing
