Hi Guys,

I just want to alert you.

There is a 1DS mk2 on a Dutch 2nd hand website for absolutely nothing (E850). So I guess it's probably stolen. The dealer is in the UK.

If you know somebody who's camera was stolen, this person might want to go after it.

Here's the link:

How can you make a judge that this is stolen? Comes with box & contents. Might be a scam though to rip somebody off of their hard earnt cash, there again it might not be? Might be worth emailing him to ask if the camera can be picked up & paid for on pick up.

Looks to be a real bargain for a canon user

Why is there a left to right scroll bar on this thread :confused:

Hi Peter,

I've edited your link so that it doesn't create havoc with the html page layout!

I checked out the link, but it seems to return an error/not found? Maybe the seller has withdrawn the sale?

Maybe he's sold it Nick :eek:

The add has been removed. This person had more expensive gear for 'sale'. I guess somebody warned the website.

Sure I don't know if it was even real, stolen, or just a package of sand.

Sorry about the link.
