I saw this GRII on America’s favorite place to find charity cameras…

Ricoh GR Digital 2 16.2MP Digital Camera - shopgoodwill.com

It looks like it was pulled out of the water with a fishing net…
I can’t believe it had 24 bidders and sold for $100…

Would something like this be useful for parts?
It certainly doesn’t look usable or probably even repairable…

That is really gross, I'm hoping it's dust or something benign... anyway, worth posting here too The worst of Craigslist/Shopgoodwill/eBay etc. - PentaxForums.com

Man that’s a gamble for sure. When I see an item go for way more than seems reasonable I always wonder “do they know something I don’t about that item?” Increasingly I think they don’t. They just bid like they are using someone else’s money.
