But this isn't an inventory problem... the item is available, in good saleable condition.

I fear it would appear an offer was made by seller (albeit wrong), accepted & paid. Law of contract. Buyer completed his part of the deal. As a seller I can sympathise. As a buyer I would demand you upheld the transaction. Ebay is by default where folk go to snag a bargain. Every now and again...

I woke up on 4 Jan 08, made my coffee, went outside for my morning smoke. Just felt that I'd get sick if I lit up. So I didn't. Thought, OK, will have one later. I didn't. Haven't had a smoke since. Haven't had a craving. Nothing, Nada.... just no desire to light up at all. My doc's...

How do you know the "other computer" isn't the one with wrong settngs? Are the histograms correct? If so, the pic's are fine.

Xplosion... you're quite entitled to your opinion & I respect you for giving it. I was merely responding to with another extreme example. I've been there. I merely described a "distracting" experience accurately according to my opinion..

I'm baaaack! Copyright law etc. is fairly well dealt with & adhered to in the 1st world. So too are the rules relating to "no sale", simply because of ease of tracing offenders & sueing etc. Since there really is no reason to target considderate photography enthusiasts enjoying an event/...

And as per start of thread & mentioned throughout, it's just my little ol' choice not to attend. Just thought there may be more who felt like I do. OK, stepping out now. As mentioned, surprised at responses, but that's freedom of speech at work. Been fun stirring this thread today...

Why not? Shouldn't we be asking questions? Isn't just blindly accepting things, exactly what launched a war in Iraq? OMG, the quantity of WMD's that have been found/ recovered since the invasion is awesome. Ol' G Bush, pulled off quite a fast one there. Questioning issues means we're not just...

Of course there would be a difference, point I was making was in relation to getting the money shot. I could get a money shot with a P&S if that's all I was after. As a dedicated tog, I'd like to get the best quality shots I can as well. Flash issue already addressed. It seems either you don't...

Adam. I see what you're saying about it being China, but flip side is authorities here using things like terrorism/ Health & safety etc. to make their burocratic decisions. Just look at the amount of coverage "stop & search" on tog's is getting here. Re. flashes at sports events etc., I...

And as far as possible only spend any money on attending events etc. that'll allow me in with my kit. My little way of making a stand. Small as it may be. As for I did say "I'm not in any way an advocate of doing a PRO out of income or the venue/ event either. I've covered e.g. Fashion...

And no harm in that. Different people = different priorities. Watching the event has higher priority for you than taking pics. For me, I go to the event to take pics. Taking of pics is my higher priority & the event is just means to the end. I'm quite happy to pay my way as well. Kinda like I...

Which IMO is 100% fair. I'm not in any way an advocate of doing a PRO out of income or the venue/ event either. I've covered e.g. Fashion Weeks for a couple of years now and understand the need to keep some exclusivity for the PRO's, thus limiting sale/ income generation. I'm just against the...

Quite possibly, but until/ unless all tog's stick together we'll never know. Look what's happened to the Microsoft UK photo comp which was open to everyone. Not just togs. It was a browse web, steal pic, submit pic, win prize thing. Due to couple of complaints about "possible" copyright...

No problem with that. They're entitled to. I'm just not one of them. Utter rot. That's a created perseption. That's hitting the nail on the head. What happened to "free market"? None of the above comments actually explain discrimination against DSLR's. If I get the "money shot" with a...
