Not so fast Nik!
Lets look at this and see why I find it irksome, you BOUGHT a camera and now want a series of opinions on whether 'Is this a good deal?' What if the consensus was that it wasn't a good deal? You'd return the camera in a flash and possibly leave bad feedback to boot then run off to paypal for a refund. All because you didn't spend a full four minutes doing research. Wisner cameras are always listed on Ebay/net so they aren't hard birds to track.
The time to ask questions about cameras is before you buy them, not after the fact. Buyers remorse wastes everyones time. Get it now?
The OP started with:
This is an Ebay purchase and their rules apply.Is this a good deal? If it is I'm in the market for a lens that will cover 8 by 10 on a compatible lens board, please send me a pm, If not, I have 30 days to return it..
The lister has given you 30 days - not to check out whether you have not made a "good deal" and return - but to check it matches the description and doesn't have any faults not discovered by the Seller. Unless the Seller waivered these standard conditions!
Thanks Steven, I'm not planning on returning it, unless it's unrepairably flawed. I was mainly looking for an assurance and information from the knowledgeable members of this forum. I have some experience with 4 by 5 using a crown graphic and Tachihara for the last 2 years, but little with 8 by 10. I got a lot of helpful replies to my question. I appreciate your reply to my original question, perhaps, I could have phrased it differently
