Many thanks for your good wishes.

Thanks for the advice but I really have no desire to get involved in the Ebay thing. Also I know that if someone here buys it then it will have a good home. I do not know anything about the people on Ebay.
I know how ridiculous that sounds but I really do want i to be looked after and be used to take great shots. It deserves it.

Sorry I had not thought about delivery. This is the first time I have sold anything by post. I do not know how much it would be. I just need the £300 to get the flat sorted. I have already lost my job due to the impending blindness so I really am desperate. Also the wife is getting sick of typing everything for me.

Any suggestions as to how much postage would be would be great. If anyone wants this kit then please call me on zero seven five three five five seven six four seven zero or PM me.

If they live on the east coast of Yorkshire I could get the wife to drive me over and then the buyer could see the K10D in all its glory and also have a play with it to satisfy themselves that it is indeed in mint condition as are the lenses and bag. Also comes with a 4 gig SD card. I know that is not very big but it has served me well along with the rest of the kit.

I am sure everyone here knows this camera and I welcome the opportunity to show just how well this kit has been looked after. I waited outside Jessops before they opened on the day that the K10D was due in. I must really have annoyed the staff, hovering around the shop waiting for the delivery lorry to arrive!

I never regretted buying it for one moment. That camera taught me about using a camera and also got me motivated to get out there and shoot.

Hi guys,
I am selling my Pentax K10D and 18-55 + the Sigma 70-300 zoom + excellent quality camera bag.

The reason for the sale is that I am about to lose my sight permanently due to optic nerve damage.
I do not feel comfortable having the camera around as it reminds me of what I will be missing.

All the items are in mint condition and have served me well through weddings Christenings, parties, and general family fun. I leave for a training program to help me prepare for a future without sight and apart from not wishing to look at the camera as it makes me want to scream but I also need £300 to get my flat blind proofed, what ever that is. I suppose I will find out on this course.

Sorry to unload on this forum but I thought someone might understand why I am feeling so low I cannot look at my camera which has been my best friend and teacher since the day I got it.

Please let me know if you want the camera or if you know some one who might.

Many thanks for your help and sorry again for being such a buzz kill.
