Too good to be true

Just seen a Hasselblad H3D39 with 35 mm lens for only 1000 euro.
The lens would easily fetch 2000 euro, body around 4000 euro.

Strange kind of English in the ad makes me wonder which Nigerian fraud crew is behind this scheme.

What kind of ad was it? Craigslist or something like that? Sounds like either a fraud or there is something wrong with it for that price.

Buyer beware! is very applicable in this electronic age.

there is a lot more of this stuff floating around in second hand websites on the net. incredible low prices for premium equipment ... to those of us skilled in the art ... this looks like fraude. just don't get carried away by it.

The fraud crew's reaction to my interest for the camera was that the deal will be handled by an escrow service.
My answer to their first email was lost in cyberspace; their email address is not recognised by gmail.

I will not attempt to get an answer from these guys. Waste of time.

"A .44 beats any fraud crew"

A .45 Magnum is quite a convincing argument.

Definitely is. Interesting experience to fire one, I must say.
