Can I throw my hat in if the deal falls through?

So, recently I've been looking at upgrading to the K7 from my K10D (50 000 actuations, woo!).
My friend has one, so I asked to borrow it and just play with it for a bit.
I must have massive hands, because I could not figure out a comfortable way to hold it! My K10D fits like a glove and really is a joy to work with, but the K7--while it felt solid with the magnesium body--just didn't fit right!
I don't know what to do now... maybe just find another K10D?
I'll see if I can borrow it for more than a day and see how that goes, perhaps...
:eek:

Thank JPZK; I've been thinking about upgrading form my K10D to a K7 and I don't think this grip will fit on the Ky body, so I will have to pass. Thanks again and sorry that we could not work something out!

Quite the deal, I'd say!
Are you willing to break up the band? I'd be interested in the grip + 2 batteries...

Wow! I've blinded myself more times than I can count today.
Yes, it's the first flash I've ever owned and yes, I bought two of them--I could not be happier!
Yesterday, after the final exam of the semester (so late in the season I think it should be criminal!) I took my friend to the airport so he could get back home to Alberta in time for Christmas. I checked out the Henry's Outlet centre in Mississauga and spotted three of these fancy flashes, with 'Vivitar Series 1' in big letters on the front, and a large LCD on the back. Knowing I had zero money in my wallet and even less in my bank account, I put them down and headed home.
After some quick research I learned that these are re-badged Sigma EF-530 DG Super flashes.
Long story short, I found some birthday cash at home and rushed back early this morning and nabbed the two that were left after one was sold before I arrived. They rang up at $179.99--I got the two of 'em for less than half that. :p :cool: :fedup: :o ;)
These guys are fun. Really fun. I like being able to have one flash here, another there, then the puny one on the camera to trigger them with--really getting some fantastic shots and having fun playing with the lighting positions.
One question; is this a good flash to start with? I feel like I cheated a bit by starting somewhere up higher than I think I should've.
Happy holidays!

Odd, mine is dia.67mm and the grip is rubber--this is the exact lens that I own, photos taken by the seller;

Would be happy to oblige--here are a couple I took yesterday of the new building on campus that I shot at or near infinity, full frame shrunk to 900px wide and 100% crops of each, also 900px wide. I'm not entirely sure what to look for so if you could post what you see I would really really appreciate it. Also, keep in mind that the front element has some coating loss on the outside face.
I present to you, the University of Ontario Institute of Technology's General Motors of Canada Automotive Centre of Excellence. (UOIT's GMC ACE :cool:)

Yea, I read that, and it's the reason why the photos I submitted were all 900px wide at 72dpi. That's something I've started doing--I keep my giant, glorious originals and submit compressed versions for consideration and preview.
Thanks for keeping an eye out for me :)

It's very exciting!! The girlfriend rolls her eyes and smiles when the camera comes out, but she just got a 2am text from me to check out the site! lol
And Yup, my Grado SR80 headphones next to my restored Sony TA-F6B integrated amp! Repainted Minimus 7 speakers with a hammertone body and flat black grills in the background sitting atop a set of Paradigm 7 (preproduction 7se model) speakers.

I just got this the other day--I modded the flange so it could fit on my K10D and it's been attached ever since! It's a S/N #22xxxxxx and I love this lens! I'm getting better at focusing without a prism and when it's dialed in, she's tack-sharp!
Love love love this lens!
First shot is scaled down to 900px, second is a crop of the original.
Straight off the card!
Thought I'd share :)

I know it's not an actual publication, but I'm excited all the same! :D

Doesn't one enter a contract with the buyer, under eBay, where if one party cancels the other party has to agree, otherwise it's considered a breach of contract? (of which the repercussions I'm uninformed of)

Holy smokes! And this morning I was doing my homework, like a sucker, and missed this deal (if it was indeed real!).
Anyone pull the trigger and not have Buy.com cancel your order?? I'd say that's grounds for negative feedback on eBay ;)

It was this exact lens; Tamron AF 28-80mm F/3.5-5.6 Aspherical
I might've answered my own question after checking out the lens database... the SMC Pentax-DA 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL II has an average rating of 8.2 while the Tamron AF 28-80mm F/3.5-5.6 Aspherical rates at a 6.5
And brando, I don't know where you're buying your pizzas, but around here a large is $13~$15 each! I figured this lens, even though the f numbers are the same, the focal range is longer, justifying the $29 price tag.
