With people listing at 99p and charging £15 postage it's caused problems for all of us. Paypal don't get any revenue on the £15, so they make you put EVERYTHING on the start price!
I tried selling an item at 99p start with postage at £3 (65p for the envelope and £2.24 postal cost. They wouldn't let me, I had to give free delivery, so the start price went up to £3.99.
I didn't sell the item, had to pay 10p insertion fee and lost out. If it had sold the paypal cost would have been 10p+40p=50p, so I'd have made 49p profit, less than Ebay on my item!

Stop making people pay others to take the items offered, let reasonable postage be charged, or set 'standard' rates, as in the books section.
It's no good having free listings for 99p items that cost £2 to send!
If retailers are in a separate section You'd know where to look for what, instead of getting confused by whether or not it's a dealer!

One of my lenses is over 25 years old and whilst I need to focus and sort out exposure - IT STILL WORKS.
that's a new lens compared to my Carl Zeiss 35mm M42 one, it must be going 40 now and still produces fantastic results with an adaptor!

But..
..what would reputable dealers such as SRS or Canon outlet do?
Maybe it's time that Ebay split into two distinct halves, one for private sellers, the other for dealers. They could charge appropriately and maybe we could get back to 2002 values!

As soon as an alternative appears, well, need I say more?

It appears that the K200d can't be adjusted to suit individual lenses, it's just set at a standard and that's that!
If any body else knows otherwise I'd like to know as well.
Have you tried a front/back focus test using one of the many charts available?

It took me weeks to get my K200d working as I wanted, well worth it though!
