Hello,

A major supermarket has two new Canon 750D body only for sale at 350€ each, less tax, plus change that's about 350$... I find the same model for 450€ online delivered.

The catch is the boxes are in a terrible state, as if they had been used to play rugby!

I currently have a 600D, the flash is not working since I fell on top of my bag but everything else is working fine and I almost never used this flash, I have a small speedlight anyway.

I spare my money to find a good mirrorless replacement but this offer is very tempting as I have more than enough right now. This would dent my budget by two or three years since I don't want to spend it all on camera body.

Do you think it is worth going back to this shop and ask to check on the camera state?

Problem with that is the store might only be able to check it's cosmetic state so the only way to check is to buy it and check out every function yourself and return it if you find anything amiss.

Will my current grip work on this model?

Don't know about the grip sorry

What would you do?

I'd only buy it if I felt the upgrade was sufficient
