EDIT: All Items are Sold

I recently purchased the grib and batteries fro TigerP here on the FM forums, hoping they would fit my camera, but they do not (not TigerP's fault, as we talked about it and I offered to take the risk if they didnt work out).

So, I am now offering them up to other FM members before I put them up on Ebay. I'm offering them for a little less that I paid for them, however I cannot personally comment on their functionality since I have no camera they work with, but I was assured by TigerP that they are in good working order.

All items are in great shape, and I was assured that the batteries are still in good working condition (but as stated I dont even have a charger for them so I cannot even charge them and put a meter on them to test that). The grip is only the grip, no box or manual (it has one very small chip which I will try to bring out in a photo but it is small, and I had to look for it). The batteries are the batteries only, no box or plastic covers, they are original Canon batteries (not 3rd party brands).

Edit:
Apparently the grip is in the serial number range of a possible problem existing with the contact pins. See MegaTron's post below for the link that explains this situation. Also, I do not have the AA battery cartridge for the grip, it is the grip only.
End Edit

Anyways, I will sell them as a lot or individually. Prices are shown below (prices include standard shipping to CONUS. If you want faster shippig I will simple charge the difference between standard and whatever method you prefer. I typicall send via UPS, but can send in any other manner if requested.

BG-E2 Grip: $100
BP-511A Battery: $25 each or $40 for both.

Grip and Batteries (2): $140 shipped.

I prefer PayPal (and do not charge extra for the fees), but will accept MOs, Cashier's Checks, etc. Items will ship by the following day with PayPal, otherwise they will ship once payment clears.

Very interested.

Is this the original Canon grip? If it is, can you provide me with the serial number so I can see if it is the grip with the contact problems?

Ill wait to see the pics. Thanks.

Amazingly I already have a pending buyer of the lot. However I will post the serial number for you in a minute. I was unaware of any grips having potential problems, which I will let the other person know about if it is in the potential serial number list before selling it.

Serial number will be posted in a minute

Serial number is 020906

If this is numbered with the grips with the problem you mention, please let me know so that I can update this listing with that information, if the other buyer wishes not buy it.

Thanks

No problem. Not surprising that it sold so fast because its a great price.

Only a problem with the older grips. Here is a link for reference:

Please let me know if the deal falls through.

Thanks.

As Branden just emailed me about this, I can assure that the grip and batteries are in good working order with my 20D. I never tested the grip with any other camera body. If there is any trouble, just send the grip back to me for a full refund

Thanks for hopping in there Tiger
