This is all getting a bit carried away - the point has been made and the seller can check with PayPal and make his decision on what to do based on that.

Terms and Conditions change and evolve regularly and it's always a good idea to keep up to speed with it.

I can only offer the guidelines for this forum, I can't interpret people's contractual arrangements with PayPal I'm afraid. Thanks for the thought though.

Oh Nooooo That's precisely what brought all this heated debate, did you forget the title of the thread?
Timing overlap of posts, so I have edited my post to make it clear what I was replying to.

John, you're right of course.

But, that's not what happened here is it?

If you started a thread on a Canon forum asking for comparison between a 50D and a K20d, and rather suggesting that the latter was inferior, you could hardly be surprised if some K20d owners got involved?

I don't see a problem with the thread to be honest, only the comments bordering on rudeness and one individual who seems to suggest constantly that you are somehow inferior if you don't use a Pentax camera...
Thanks for that, but we'd better not stray into another off topic discussion.

Back to the issues involved, although that's probably been argued out by now.

I will just say though that I wouldn't go to a Canon forum for that purpose, I'd be looking for a general forum like EPZ where all users are around.

That's not a glitch - it stops those who like to vote for the winner skewing the result. You vote without being influenced by the results so far.

All is well and the lens is operating as it is designed to.

It's actually a nice lens to have, rather more compact than my built-like-a-tank FA version!

Why can't you vote Mike?

It's always a delicate blance between the freedom to state an opinion and things decending into a shouting match and so far everyone has been pretty good - robust but not quite over the line.

Let's just keep it that way. The curious aspect is that if I were to log onto a Canon forum, let's say, and gave Canon a hard time I'd expect some serious disquiet from the other forum members. In fact, to be honest I wouldn't bother doing that.
