I too would not like to have this sort of negative energy attached to that lens,
rather then a positive good spirit that always brings a smile to ones face just
by remembering that two people who respect and like each other have agreed
to swap for a good purpose. I'm convinced that this sort of "Karma" exists!
I'm glad you have chosen to take the high road Larry! |
I saw this first-hand a few (probably more than a few, times goes fast) years ago. The guy bought a Vivitar Macro 90/2.5Series 1
lens from a guy who didn't know anything about photography. Anyway, he paid about $20 for the lens. I was shocked and
disappointed when he bragged to me "the dumb sh** didn't even know the worth". That is kinda tragic, because the seller had
already admitted his lack of knowledge about worthiness of the lens. I was taken aback about the buyer being called a "dumb sh**". _________________
