If this is in the wrong place could a mod move it please, and my apologies

I've been semi keeping an eye on tripods on ebay, not so much because I need one, just if one came up at the right price I'd probably go for it.

Anyway, found this :shock: :shock:

i bought this tripod but never used but i have adjusted the height a little but cutting off about 2" off the bottom leg. i done this just to make it a little smaller but it still goes to head hight.

No bids - auction over. Didn't fancy it then Dodders? :?
 
how much are these thing in ' perfect ' condition then, lol

hmmm, I can see some possible sense in this if perhaps they wanted the tripod to sit at a certain height when fully extended. Or perhaps it's just written wrongly and they have taken a few inches off the top leg sections to reduce the packed size. It is odd though and I'm probably giving them too much credit. :lol:
 
LOL.. Very strange.

I've got a Manfrotto 055 I've had about 20 years. It's superb quality, but there are better, lighter, options if you're looking to cart it around. Current prices at Warehouse Express....

Don't forget you still have to buy a head for it.

He's relisted it now with a 'Buy It Now' price of 70 quid. :D
 
Just asked the seller a question, it goes along these lines:

Do you have a photo of the actual tripod your selling?

Do you still have the 2" you cut off?

Would you consider selling the 2" piece you have cut off? I want to add a bit onto the one I've got.

It would be interesting to see the reply, but the email I have regestered on the account isn't valid anymore.

Ask him if you take it at the buy it now price will he throw in some super glue to make the adjustments as pain free as possible :lol:
