Completely bizarre, makes you wonder if the buyer has read the listing. No indication of what is wrong with it, no questions asked (or at least, answers published).

 

I once listed a piece of AV equipment which was listed as only working on the UK 240v 50Hz and PAL 625 line TV system and it was bought by a bubblehead in Buffalo who then left me negative feedback when it arrived. The shipping cost more than the item did.

yes i was watching that auction, as i want a dead D2 for a project i have in mind

(please donate your dead D2 here :) )

have a look at the bidders, and you will see that some individuals inexplicably bid against themselves, and then there are some very similar nicks. And BTW, i dont know about you guys but dead as in wont power up, probably doesnt mean a dead sensor.

 

very suspicious, thats all i can say

 

for US based persons heres an L1 that i cant get access to anyway

In that same vein..... a sealed, factory refurbished Digilux 1 recently sold for $256, then a few days later a 'gently used' example went for $355.

I suppose some just gotta have at any cost - sometimes the 'e' is for entertainment on eBay.

Interesting. Perhaps the sensor went dead, the battery was bad or needed charged. In that case quite a deal.

 

If the sensor was bad, wonder if Leica will repair it for free for second owner.

Leica would, at least how I read their commitment

nothing says that it has to be the sensor though

and since the guy trading it seems to be a dealer

make your own conclusions

Rob,fyi....there are some US companies which, for a fee will act as a go-between for you, when bid on 'US only' EBAY items. You use them as a US delivery address, and they reship the item to you.
