It's always a bit traumatic buying the big ticket items, even from friends here on FM. Just wanted to thank Joe Blair for living up to the highest standards. When Joe says it's new, you can bank on it.

I can not say anything bad about this transaction what so ever. 70-200 and the 17-40 were in 9-9+ condition. The 28-70 would be an 8+/9. Some internal dust that only affects @ f/22, not much he could do about that due to the design of the lense, and nothing CPS can't fix... I would say they were exactly as described. You could have shipped the baby jesus in the package he sent... everything was very well protected.
Communication was excellent, and Jake provided me everything I asked for. Jake went the extra mile to ensure I had the items by the weekend. There were phone calls and emails exchanged constantly between us through out the whole exchange, and I'd call the whole thing a perfect transaction

I recently completed a very pleasant transaction with Rincewind. He (Clay) paid via bank check, which he overnighted to me so that he would avoid the excessive Paypal fees on the three "L" lenses. When I was a bit off on calculating the shipping cost he was more than generous to cover for me, even when I admitted fault. Clay is a stand-up guy and I would have no hesitation in trading with him again or in recommending him to anyone else here on FM.
I bought a BG-ED3 from jimhsu and recieved it just as described and very quickly. He was even nice enough to draw out instructions on how to install the grip. Great man and I would not hesitate to do business with him again.

The compact flash cards I bought from Dan arrived just a few days after I paid through paypal, and they arrived well packaged and as described. Fair deal, fast shipping, friendly guy, no complaints. Thanks Dan.
