Most of you may not be as daft as to buy a Contax II on eBay, but I did. From a supposedly reputable dealer trading under the eBay name sebsandiego. It was desribed as being in good working order and so I paid a fairly high price. It arrived looking good cosmetically but with the self-timer not working. The first roll of film did not go through properly, with double exposures..... a second film was OK. On the third film the shutter jammed completely. Repeated e mails to sebsandiego asking them to contact me have been ignored. I am left with a useless camera which will cost at least £50 to fix (even if I take the risk of shipping it to Oleg Khalyavin in Russia - more if I have it done in the UK). Please spread the word about such eBay sharks - and give sebsandiego in particular a very wide berth.
