How old are you willing to deal with? Adam had an older Rebel before he switched to Nikon. I can ask him what he did with it.

Ok people, found this guy selling his 40D with about 6600 actuations on it and he's willing to take 400 dollars shipped. Should I do it? Anything I should ask if if/before I commit

I'm always iffy about buying electronics *I consider a camera an electronic* from Craigslist or Ebay.

Make him fully type out to you in email that it is in good condition and have him list any damage to it at all.

Also get his first and last name and address.

Anyways, I actually found him on a camera forum but he linked me to craigslist to show the pictures

I need to check my actuation but I was going to say, after work, Id sell you mine for 375. However, otherwise I'd ask about the basics, has it been left in a car, been wet, been in the snow, dropped, does it have trouble with any lens, etc.

Oh ok that sounds a lot better than just random guy on Craigslist.

I don't know if he's willing to ship and he's a regular on the forum and seems like a legit person I don't see any issues on it. Those pics are pretty clear.

I'm not sure what I have additionally to the body though. That guy sounds like a good deal actually.

But I KNOW you! I'll hold off happily until you get home! I've been going back and forth because I have hard time trusting someone I don't know from online. So I would rather go with someone I do know and trust online. That sounds funny, but you know what I mean!

So I'll wait until you get home and look, if it doesn't work out it seems like 40D are being offered on a continuous basis

FWIW mine was from some random guy on Craigslist lol. Granted he was close enough that I could meet him in person and mess around with the camera before buying it, and verify his backstory a bit.
