I think that we are spending too much time on this. He can do whatever makes him happy. It’s a lot of money and if the scratch bothers him then so be it. It is his choice.

If you feel YOU are spending too much time on this, simply stop posting. I realize that as a member for almost four months you feel a need to direct things.
One thing you should do is read all the replies before posting your own comments. If you had, you would know that the OP already made his decision and acted on it. What you will find after you are here a while is that, like you, many people would rather 'speak than listen'.
So, in spite of the fact that the OP has taken the necessary action, and you feel "WE' are spending too much time on this, the thread could easily go for a few more pages.
Just go with the flow, it's more fun that way.

I purchased two pieces of glass from Ebay and the experience was very good. I must admit I spent several hours looking at photos of each lens. Both came from Japan.

100% on the money!
Thanks to Peterfiore for attaching Grading Chart. Technically, the issue is an 'external scuff' versus 'very slight signs of wear'. Therefore, does not meet standard.
But does not matter anyway now.

Take a look at their explanation for how they grade. I have purchased and sold gear from/to them several times on the past and they have more than fair. I believe that excellent can have some cosmetic flaws and excellent+ would be almost like it was new.
They want happy customers so if you are not happy return it to them

Not really constructive. Especially since the OP already posted that he is returning the camera and buying one of their 'mint' units. In the end, the buyer will be happy with their decision and the seller continues to rate high on everyone's list.
Read the post again.
"hi team -I traded up and purchased from MBP a Z6 and its grading was excellent category"
Excellent and mint are worlds apart.
Then respond to me when you read what was posted by the OP.

Not being too fussy. Excellent should not have have scratches or scuffs.

Actually, while my use of 'mint' is incorrect; your reply is off base.
My comment does not refer to his initial post but most recent where he says....'to this end I will be returning the Z6 and paying extra to have "as new" '.
While my choice of words here was in error; the intent and point are still the same. Maybe 'As New' is better than 'Mint'.
So, A1776..maybe you should take a little more time to consider what you are saying..and be constructive.

Why? Most photographers I know purchase a lot of gear used. Many of my professional friends will find better equipment for their current needs. I have only purchased few things new. I have only had one issue with all of my purchases and it was quickly resolved. I find on average I get 25% off. Some lenses I find some cosmetic issues but I have never had an issue with the actual photo. I purchased a used Canon EOS R to use for clogging for 1750.00 when they were 2195. Works as well as a new one.

MPB is a BIG TIME buy sell outfit... they attempt ... (show quote)
I love when posters throw cigarette butts in the punch bowl, but don’t offer examples (of which accusations aren’t). I’ve bought and sold to MPB on 4 occasions with complete satisfactions. On the 3 sell transactions, they offered the best offer by 5%-10% and process a walk in the park. On the 1 buy, all went smoothly and the camera and accessory was as advertised. I did call with a question after receiving the purchased item. The cus serv rep provided the clarification I sought and opened the return window in case I had concerns.
