To his credit, the seller refunded my money (claiming it was the first he\'d seen of it, never shot high ISO, blah, blah, blah). The refund is a good thing and he apologized but my pride is a bit wounded and, sadly, so too is my faith in buying used gear from people without \'feedback\'. .....

Hi Folks,
I am the seller of the camera being discussed. I get the sense that the OP seems to indicate I attempted to sell a lemon to an unsuspecting buyer. That is not my style, I have sold several bodies previously without any issues (see ebay freeback id: ananda_sub). If my goal was the pass off a lemon, I could have just kept the money since the bill of sale stated the camera was sold AS IS. I treat every buyer of my equipment the same as I would like to be treated if I was the buyer.
Anyways, I cannot re-create the problems reported by the OP. I have gone through all my images and the highest ISO I have of an image is at ISO 800. The image at the bottom of the post is one at ISO 800 shot at my daughter\'s hockey game couple of days ago under extremely poor lighting conditions.
In fact I have also shot a series for shots in burst mode at ISO 1600 after returning the money to the buyer and cannot see the banding reported by the OP. I am suspecting some other issue other than the camera (perhaps a bad card). I have included a link below to a zip file of the raw images from the burst sequence, I would appreciate if you guys can take a few minutes to look through the images and see if you can see a problem that I don\'t notice. I would like to send it to Canon if any repairs are needed.
Bottom line is I never really wanted to sell the camera, however I got a great price on a 5DII body and have to sell it since I cannot keep two bodies.
Sensor @ 1600 iso look pretty normal, the shutter speed of the sequence is too low (1/15) to verify the shutter. Would you try faster speed like 1/4000-1/8000
