Lutra Lutra 611 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 I have not been to a boot sale for over a year, but as I was on my way to work this morning Something was telling me to go in. In I went and had a quick look around, nothing but clothes and toys as per. I was about to leave and decided to have another walk around when a woman was putting this out. I asked her how much, and she told me that the screen at the back was broken, Knowing what they are worth I thought even getting that repaired it still may be a cheap DSLR if I could get it repaired. The problem was I did not know how much the screen will cost to repair, so I would have to cautious on what I paid for it. So after looking through the box and a few items were missing, That I went to great pains to point out., Driver view disc no lens cover, I asked her how much, "would a tenner be all-right" she replied? I nearly bit her hand off, but the old boot sale buyer in me came to the surface, so I asked her would she take a fiver? I also pointed out that the charger had no lead and I did not know if the camera actually worked. I nearly fell through the floor when she said yes. :toast: I still don't know if it is working yet, battery is on charge as I type this. One very happy. TC You lucky brute! Well done!
