Anyone ever deal with a company called Mercari?

It's supposed to be a consumer-to-consumer site. They claim that their policy is that they don't process your payment until three days after you receive a product, and that you can return it within the three-day period.

I've seen a few websites say they are legit.

Sounds Great.

They have a BBB rating of A

Sounds Great.

Their customer rating on the BBB site is 1.06 stars out of five (over 1000 reviews). WHAT? Given that some people misclick, I wouldn't have thought that was possible.

I see a listing for a Nikon Z 7 ii today for Under $400 -- with the 24-70 claiming that it has about 300 clicks. What????

My first, second and third reactions are this has got to be a scam. But if I'm not charged until I receive the item, I'm not sure I'm seeing what it is.

Anyway -- comfortable in the belief that if it looks too good to be true, it almost certainly is. I'm not going to bite.

But does anyone know what the play on the part of the seller is here.

Your spiders sense is tingling? I advise go with your gut feeling.

I stopped at a house about 200 yards from the barn. Got permission to enter the property to get these shots.
The first one is interesting with the collapsing roof but I like the 2nd shot with the vines climbing down from under the eves. I like the way you used color, for me the vivid color isolates, provides separation for the subject which is the old structure, and it is in stark contrast to the decay

These days I feel like that barn some mornings. ;)

...killing off "single purpose" cameras?

Another threat to photography at an entirely different level - link in the next post.


Technology relentlessly marches forward. Accept it, embrace it or try to hang on to the old ways. It’s the users choice. The level of frustration and enjoyment may vary depending on which of those paths the user takes.

I am interested in purchasing a used camera using E-Bay. I have never used the site before, and have several questions.
1. How do you know the item is actually as described?
2. If necessary, is there a way to send the item back and get a refund?
3. Are there any possible problems in dealing with E-Bay?
4. If so, how avoid them?
If any of you who have dealt with E-Bay have any advice, I would be pleased to hear it.
Thanks in advance.


I have a Question for you, why you used all caps in the title?

Step 1) Try a different Nikon Lens (not a 3rd party), if no changes, reset your camera to factory default as described in owners manual, also try a different memory card...not usual, but it may apply (Also format the card in the camera, not on PC

If all that fails, call Nikon Tech Support, they have tons of hidden ideas before they say (send it in)

Here is the beginning of the useless replies from those who have not read the prior replies and realized the problem has been solved. Nevertheless there will be many more pages.

With simple problems here the solution is usually posted before the end of the first page. And That was the case here.

Nevertheless there will be more pages of replies.

Perhaps I can provide some answers for you and others in this thread. I have worked in a Walmart photo lab for the past several years. We haven't processed film in-store in the last ten years or so. We are a Fuji lab and our machines don't allow us to do any editing or color correction of any kind. Our main photo printer is a Fuji DL650 and we print our posters, poster boards, canvases, and banners on an Epson 9000 series printer. As far as longevity, I have not noticed any fading in my personal prints. I hope this helped to answer your questions.

Well normally when kidding you add an emoji like. ;). That way people know you are kidding.

If you had any class you would thank him for his kind reply.

But in fact I suspect you knew this and your omissions were deliberate. “If it talks like a Troll…”.
In case there is any doubt that statement is directed at you.

Beautiful day for the eclipse until the eclipse time. Then it got cloudy. The eclipse’s glasses didn’t work. It just made everything black. Oh well I guess I will have to wait for the next one in 20 years. On the bright side I am glad I didn’t buy any filters for my camera.
That is so disappointing.
Sorry for the bad weather.

Just go to Nasa.com they will have great pics you can download.

I am north of Philly in the 91% totality zone. I know you need filters for your cameras and phones ( which I don’t have). But I do have glasses. Is holding my glasses over the lens safe?
Use a solar shade or welding glass.

MWojton wrote:
Also, an article I read said that for a few minutes during totality, it is safe to remove the filters. I wonder if that will be safe in my area (at 91%)?
No. 91% is not totality. 91% is a partial eclipse. Do not look directly at a partial eclipse.


Sorry for the late reply. Hope you got good answers.
