Re: That (unnamed) store in S.F.

[P3D Sam Smith <3dhacker@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So why is this store unnamed anyway? You wimps afraid of being sued or
something? Pacific Camera has a 3.5 realist for sale at $475.00

Shocking? Maybe not. Here's the ad:

22027 WHITE STEREO REALIST 3.5, 65TH CAMERA PRODUCED.... LOOKS
EX.................................... 475.00 

I know these guys are legit because I've dealt with them and was very
pleased with what I bought. A very early Realist could have a collector's
value much highter than a standard Realist in my opinion. If they sell it
for that price than someone felt it was worth it.

On the other hand, if some joker is selling a 3D item at a riduculous price,
I think it is the duty of those who have experience in the field to set him
straight.


Maybe I've gone beyond the charter, but isn't this group set up  in part to
inform and discuss items relating to 3D, such as fair value?

If I advertised somewhere on sell-3d or here that I was selling Nishikas at
the bargain price of $699, would I not expect to be corrected for this
overinflated price? If not, some poor bozo will end up really thinking
they're worth that much. None of us benefit from falsehoods.
