All these "super duper eBay deals" have one boring thing in common, and that is that they never ship outside USA.

It was the same thing with the eBay deals from Beach Camera and Adorama. US only.

Normally, this thing comes and goes really quickly. Now, an hour has passed and not a single one is sold.

With the hassle on warranty and Paypal's policy on international shipment, it's not a surprise to me that US sellers don't want to ship internationally.

Especially since there deals sell out within hours despite the "US only" designation.

Do you really want to buy a US camera and ship it to Thailand ? It would save you about $ 200-250 instead of buying it in Thailand. And the camera would be without any real warranty. That's not a good deal (IMO)

I've read you can get over regret after shooting this a while....
I really would like the AF and some other features.
Thanks for the tip!

Only problem is its $3050 for me as I live in New York and have $248 sales tax to pay. Waiting for an out of state seller to show up.

Any close friends or relative in New Jersey?

Good Luck and I hope you came through the storm alright.

I'm cautious about this. If anyone else orders and gets shipping confirmation, let us know. I'd be more inclined to buy.--Eric.

Cautious? Why? It's Datavis. I've bought a ton of stuff from them. Never one issue.

Thanks, yes just a few trees down squashing the cars but no water damage.

If it was $20 I'd feel fine asking a friend to buy it and pay back but $3000 is a lot of money.

Some of these sellers charge tax in NJ too like Adorama and B and H as they have property there.

Has anyone here ever bought from them? They have 133 negative feedback for the past 12 months and the comments all seem very similarly negative.

98.7% feedback on ebay indicates higher than average dissatisfaction rate compared to other power sellers. Most trusted power sellers have feeback %age of 99.5 or above.

Obviously you are never going to have perfect rating when you sell so many items, there are bound to be a few unhappy customers once in a while. However if you actually read the feedback, most complaints are either about the item sent not matching the item promised, or about the orders getting canceled without explanation etc. I would be cautious when buying such a high priced item from a seller like that.

Have you personally bought anything from them and had a good experience with them?

There is nothing to worry about, the are a solid company, I'm sure others will chime in also who've bought from them. In fact I had some units arrive today, no issues with my orders.

It looks to me like they intentionally ended the listing right before midnight in the west coast. I guess MAP policy is sorta strict this time.

Then why just not run auction for 15 hours instead of 24? It would end by itself and potential buyers would know how much time they have to complete purchase.

They are based in New York. And they probably thought it was a last shot to do this. So, the listing started at around 10am EST after their manager or someone who had authority there gave a green light to list it on eBay. And they had to end it before midnight before the MAP policy kicked in. Also, any potential buyer should have expected that items might run out or the promotion might end at anytime. Nothing biggie if you ask me.

Please forgive my ignorance, but can't you just go to NJ and not pay sales tax? I live in Portland (OR) and have no sales tax. I know that people from Vancouver (and probably Idaho/NV/Cal as well) cross the bridge and make purchases here and not pay sales tax...
