Re: What are your arguments ...

Pro's - it's likely to be cheap, including good battery & charger.

Con's - it'll need to be cheap or it'll need to have a couple of decent lenses with it. If it fails within a few weeks/months it'll be mostly a total loss situation!

I bought my NX's as a cheap digital platform for my old Russian r/f lenses. If I needed to replace the body it'd have to be cheap else I might as well get something better supported, where there's at least a chance of repair if necessary!

The only valid reason I can think of for buying one of these bodies is to replace a failed unit, where a selection of compatible lenses already exists and there's no real option to change system completely.
