Thanks. > Don't let anyone be fooled by Michael, he is a businessman and has now moved from filters to lenses. He is here (and EOS3 & Elan 7 lists as well) to make money from us - nothing else. He has never contributed any questions (as far as I can remember) or provided any responses to any questions of the members. At least he has stopped advertising his eBay auctions but is still in it for profit. Can this be allowed to continue when we are stopped advertising our auctions?

What's wrong with that? The members of the list are adults and can judge for themselves whether or not $320 is a reasonable price for this lens. For example, KEH now lists 3 of these lenses for between $310 and $360. Of course, KEH is a reputable dealer as opposed to a private party, so the list members have to decide for themselves which route to take. I'm sure that, if he had a bad reputation for selling shoddy goods, the list would find out pretty quickly. I was under the impression that list members were allowed to advertise items to other list members, but not allowed to link to auctions. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
