I am very pleased with my transaction with Shawn (shutterhappy).
The item was accurately described,securely packaged, quickly shipped and cordial communications was maintained all throughout.
This is one of my best transactions (if not the best) here at FM.
Thank you Shawn and thank you too, Fred for a great community.
Hi All, i just purchased a fine camera from Bruce and wanted to share my experience with him. He is an outstanding person to do business with, communications are prompt and pleasant. The camera that he sent to me is super mint, as described, I can not be any happier. I was looking for a special camera, looked for a long time on Ebay but decided that there is little chance of a disappointment if i deal with someone on Fred's board. I highly recommend Bruce to anyone who would like to either purchase from or to sell to. This was truly a painless transaction, no gripes at all.
I was naturally a bit hesitant to send a sizable amount of money overseas with, essentially, no recourse if the item were not shipped. Fortunately, those fears were groundless. Rob is a VERY standup guy whom I'd not hesitate to do business with in the future.
At all times he kept me informed. When there proved to be a problem with the tracking number, he tracked down the issue promptly (it proved to be a small issue with UPS's website tracking, not the number). I received the lens a very few days after the close of auction, the day that Rob speculated that it would arrive. It was well padded and arrived in great shape.
I bought one of these from Rob through the auction. Excellent process, clear, clean updates. Paid on Monday and got the lens on Friday. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Rob.
Bought several filters from Coolmingli in two different transactions; both were great deals for me. Communication was prompt and smooth, shipping occurred next morning, and the filters arrived in great condition, as described.
Comments: Bought a Canon 135 F2L from Rich. He was kind enough to sell to me here in Australia, even though there were US buyers lined up after me. His description of the lens was excellent! For complete disclosure - he even mentioned in his ad that the hood was a bit loose. Feels great to me though . And of course, the lens arrived fully packaged and in like new condition just as promised. Thanks Rich, it was a pleasure.

Comments: It was a pleasure dealing with Mike. We met and I showed him both the Canon 70-200mm 2.8 and the Sigma 120-300mm 2.8. He took pics with both of them and downloaded to his laptop. I knew he was torn which one to get. After about 2 hours, he settled with the Canon. I know he is going to have a good time taking pics of his son in Little League. Great guy.
