[QUOTE="johnwartjr, post: 122037, member: 2176"] eBay is not always a deal. You have to be a knowledgeable customer, regardless of where you are buying. Last year, I wanted a B400 for a background light... didn't need another B800. Also wanted a small softbox. Started watching eBay... Within a week of starting to watch, I managed to get 2 nice used B800 heads, one of their Vagabond IIs, and an octabox for about 300 bucks from a seller. Sold the Vagabond for $100 (needed a new battery), so I was $200 in for 2 more B800s and the Octabox. 1 new B400 is $225+shipping With eBay, patience often pays off... [/QUOTE]
