p.1 #1 · Refurb or what?

Hi,

I was about to buy a used 5D on ebay UK but at the last minute noticed that on the photo of the bottom plate the serial no. is photoshopped out and there is a sticker with the words "(1) WARRANTY VOID IF REMOVED".

I suspect it is a refurb. Seller says nothing about this in the description. Is he trying to hide something? Should I drop the deal?

Thanks!
Ian

You will have to ask him but showing a serial number to the internet masses is not good practice. Void if removed is standard.

Thanks rock! I'll go ahead with the deal then. He said the same thing!

Best,
Ian
