[QUOTE="Vixen, post: 412582, member: 21839"] I also buy lots of bits and pieces off eBay. Not just photog gear but all sorts from motorcycle & car parts to clothing. Like has been said, you just need to be careful & read the ad properly so you don't get burned by NOT noticing that p&p costs $500 (and yes, they do do that at times). I've used Amazon a couple of times too. I have also bought from online shops. I bought my D7100 and 105mm lens via an online store that I had previously bought my Tokina 12-24mm lens from. The items came from Hong Kong but with full Aust warranty. They were good to deal with and the stuff comes pretty quickly (my camera took 10days and that was over Christmas & New Year, so I was well impressed). You just need to be careful. People will recommend stores if you ask around. If you have any doubts, don't do it ;) [/QUOTE]
