Got my camera back today. I had to drive 4 hours round trip to get it. Was to be shipped but was never done. The Camera is a Mamiya C330 with Mamiya - Sekor 1:28/80 mm lens. Get it home check out manual for that camera, forgot about when the camera is set on" single" camera goes into lock down, set it at "mult" everything is working, this is without film in the camera. The camera was set at "single" so it would not work, Fool who purchase it did not known this. Idiot!. Don't buy something if you don't known how it works. I still can't understand why the auction house let the person have their money back. (?). Well, anyway the camera works fine and I have it.

Same thing happened to me on ebay. Selling an antique watch, was returned by buyer because, "it won't run." When I got it back, it hadn't been wound.

The clown probably looked it over, couldn't find the USB charging port and figured you were trying to pull a fast one.

I have a Mamiya C330 with that lens. Use to use it all of the time but got tired of lugging it around. It's a lot of camera but I love it. It was my dad's soI won't be selling it.

Cdouthitt: I was waiting for someone to ask. $300.00 for camera with Mamiya - Sekor 1:2.8 80mm lens. Porrofinder in leather case. Leather case to keep the camera in. Leather case mark " 80mm lens." Everything fit in leather carry case. NO MAILING CAMERA OUT. ONLY LOCAL PICK UP. CASH ONLY. As Cthahn wrote I learned a hard lesson. One is free to have their own film to test the camera, I will hold camera until one get their film back. For more information: my location and how to get here.
