My fault entirely John, the date on the K-x was in American format and was out by some distance - this puzzles me as I reset it not long ago, but that was the reason.

Magnificent set Gary, tremendously well done.

We're having a little local festival in Tickhill nr. Doncaster (www.t-fest.co.uk) on 21st September - can you come?

It would be great to see you there.

David

Thanks John, I'll check the camera when I get home tonight, but I would be surprised if the date is out by more than a day or two because that particular camera was repaired and essentially had completely new insides fitted a couple of months ago. When I got it back I had to reset all of the date and time settings, so I know this has been done recently. I'll let you know when I've re-checked it.

John, I think you are reading the dates wrong - they come out in US date format on some cameras, or maybe the PC is altering it? Could this be the reason for so many deletions from competition entries recently?

John, why have you deleted my monthly competition entry? It was taken on Tuesday this week, on my K-x, on a walk around our local Nature Reserve. In my book that is 'July 2013' isn't it?

If we are going to have reminders about posting images correctly I think we should also have some about deleting them appropriately!

Regards
David

Hi everyone, hope you are all gearing up for the hot weather this coming weekend!

Just a quick reminder about a great photography event that I mentioned a couple of months ago. 'T-Fest' is a music festival to be held in the quaint Yorkshire village of Tickhill on September 21st, link below:

As mentioned earlier, we would love to see a whole load of Pentaxians there on the day, with families too! Tickets are only £15 each for the full day and can be purchased from the T-fest website.

Thanks in advance!!

Best wishes
David

I like your sense of humour with the bubble wrap and boxes Dave!

Good luck with the sale, these look like quality items, I'm sure someone will take them off your hands.

All I expect from anyone is openness and honesty. I PM'd with the full asking price, I offered to collect and pay cash, you replied and said the location / date was not convenient, I replied immediately and offered to collect on a different day and asked you to tell me where and when, all very polite.

I got no reply and then sent another polite PM asking the same questions again. It wasn't mentioned in your post that you would rather sell without the battery and charger and you never mentioned this in your reply to me last night either.

Of course you can sell to whomever you choose at whatever price you choose, I can't and won't dispute this. What I take some exception to is not replying to me and giving the opportunity to do what you required (that I didn't know about) and then selling to someone else without even a message to let me know!

That seems a bit disrespectful to me and I certainly would not do business on the Forum in this way.

I've bought / sold quite a few items on the Forum, all transactions smooth on both sides and without any issues at all.

Just as it's your right to sell in whatever way you choose, it's my right to let my feelings be known as I went out of my way to be accommodating and was not even told that you'd decided to sell elsewhere.

I'm sure that many people will understand and see where I'm coming from.

Best wishes
David

PS - forgot to mention that your 'for sale' Forum Post did not mention posting the goods, so how was anyone expected to know that you preferred to post them or what the postage cost would be? I'm a bit confused.
