>>3214824It's hit and miss I've bought heaps of camera off yahoo auctions saying untested or not working and most of the time the seller doesn't know how to use them. I generally check the sellers other items to see if they sell a lot of camera, which if they do I usually take their word for that that it's busted.
Here's a list of cameras I've bought:
Olympus XA (2201 yen)
>Junk item shutter not workingpopped in a new battery and it worked fine
Olympus XA3 (5750 yen)
>Junk item shutter not workingagain popped in a new battery and it worked fine, also it was in mint condition.
Olympus MJU Zoom 110 (1 yen LMAO)
>junk itemIt worked for 2 rolls then the clams hell broke off and the power switch got fucked up
Fuji DL-200 II Date (20 yen LMAO)
>Since this product also does not check the operation after putting both batteries, we will send as junk items. Popped in a fresh battery works like a charm
Konica A4 (1849 yen)
>junk item, scratches, crack in glassthis one was complete shit someone had cut the ribbon wire going to the back so you couldn't change any of the setting, still work but the screen is blank.
A second Konica A4 (1900 yen)
>Dirty, scratches, uncheckedThis one was in mint condition, suck a beautiful camera, too bad whenever you use flash/auto flash it rewinds the film back to the start no matter what frame you're on
Overall I've learn that most sellers probably don't know what they're talking about. I'd be careful with buying fully electronic cameras since I've had troubles with all the ones I've bought (Mju, x2 A4), make sure to research them before buying and try your hardest to inspect them with the limited images on the page.
