Hey Bill,

Thanks for the additional info.   I too noticed that the price had dropped, and now that the "auction" ended today I noticed that the same package was reposted today for $100 more from the same Ebay seller.

I am somewhat reluctant to purchase any item from ebay, and being a piece of electronics makes me more nervous, so I would look into some backing or warranty as you mentioned FOR SURE!!!

I went to visit a nice local camera store and looked at the A850 (used) that they had along with a newer A7R II so I could start to understand this mirrorless technology.    While the electronic viewer on the brand new camera was very nice and the feature of seeing results of compensation and changes to the exposure "live" in the viewer was very nice, I know that my wife will NOT allow me to spend that kind of money for a new model.

I have purchased a used lens from KEH in the past and was very pleased with the stated condition and the backing by them.   Are there any other companies out there that are like KEH?      I saw that there is an Ebay store with the name of DH Electronics Group, but found it funny that one of their current adds for an A7 II has the "specs" of an A200 camera...    ?!?!?  (WTH)

I will keep looking and keep researching this.    Thanks for letting me ramble...
