Yeah... I meant I'd let people know if I got that $100 as the price to beat - oh well - anyway -- I'll keep the rest off the list - and in future put it differently but I sure don't have much left to sell along the line of camera stuff. The reason I like ebay, actually, is that I've always worried about charging people too much (probably why I'm poor!) for something, my anti-corporate world mind-set - so if I get a lot of money for something I've found for a tiny amount I don't feel guilty. ann > > > But even if you are being a crumudgeon, thanks for the added info > > I just thought of an additional advantage for the older AF080C, > although it's a totally subjective one (and some may consider it to > be either insignificant or even a disadvantage).
