It's not really any of our business how they can cough up as much money as they like (as much as it amazes us stuck on pensions) and then dump it again fairly quickly.
Maybe they have very big bank accounts
I know of one member in here who regularly buys expensive equipment, tries it out, maybe uses it for a while, then passes that gear on for free to quite a few other members.
Yes, free.
Telecopes, adaptors, lenses, accessories etc.
This member is in a situation where they can do it, and enjoys doing it to help others.
But I feel a bit annoyed about a couple of buyer/sellers who may be just using this site to run a small business in buying and selling for profit.
I know it isn't against any rules and it is 'just business' but it doesn't seem right to me. Especially when they buy the item here, then resell it in here immediately for more.
They are more of a worry than someone regularly unloading unwanted gear at cheaper prices (which we should be happy about)
