Nope, the best part is that at their fire sales the hardware is only slightly used.

Cheap and like new...hard combo to beat!

For shooting charts and diagonal lines of batteries, mostly. Probably haven't seen much field use. :)

Hey, nicksan, although I agree with blonde, the beauty of this forum is that its just like TV. If you don't like it, switch to another channel.

there it is there.

it's easier to change what you do rather than trying to change the behavior of another.

just outsmart the mouse or whatever you use to navigate the forum :D!

Oh I don't think your PoV is so mad...it's just a recognition that you don't need technical capacitiy that exceeds practical use...such state of the art is valuable only to those who have to have the capacity even if they never use it...people who drive Porsches that never exceed 80mph and never leave the interstate still love that ride and I can't blame 'em.

The best part about gearheads are their frequent fire sales so they can buy the latest and greatest...makes it affordable for the budget minded to have some serious upscale gear!

This is SO true - most of the gear in my bag was obtained at some SERIOUS discounts over new right here on this forum (and others).

You have indeed found the silver lining to people needing the latest and greatest.
