Come on guys. All those scratches and nicks add to the 'patina' of your camera. Have you looked at a working pro's camera lately - they look like they've been through the washing machine? My cameras and lenses have lots of scratches and nicks all over them - I love it. Each one has a story to tell and reminds me of where I was when I banged it or did this and that. I don't keep my gear to sell, I keep it to use it, so if it looks like it's been used - that's fantastic. I'm only talking of cosmetic damage of course - I'm not talking about damage and breakages - that is terrible - I just means small scratches and scrapes that add to the look of your camera. I'm not being a smart @#$ here either, I truly mean this and that's how I view any dings or 'patina' on my cameras.

I understand what you're saying but I try my absolute best to keep my cameras is pristine condition. I have several cameras and I don't have one scratch on any of them. I'm just that type of fella.
