Hello,
In recent times Mr. Harish and Dr. Sriram has blamed me for being not a genuine buyer and lowballing.

1) I have contacted Harish ji for A7II for my friend but never confirmed that I will definitely buy the camera. I told that I will let him know. I'm trying to help him and also my friend. There is a not a profit of single penny for me. His relative was died and this is true. if anyone wants he can talk to my friend. I never confirmed harish ji for buying. If circumstances are not supporting for buying what can I do?

2) Regarding the Batis 85 lens and GS Ferrari I have done deal with him. I explained him what will I going to do to to collect the money. He has said that he will keep the Batis. But he has sold the lens without informing me. He can sell his lens to anybody, no issues. But where he agreed for keeping the lens he should inform me that he is going to sell the lens. Anyways the thread was closed after lots of arguments.

2) For Dr. Sriram, He had put a price for him camera and also I had put my budget. Where is the problem? No one asking for why he put a price tag for his camera, If I tell my budget that is 'lowballing' ? When a seller put his price on a item no one ask weather the price is justified or not. But if any buyer put his price in front of the seller that is 'lowballing' ?

It seems that as long as you are not on the receiving end of someone else’s indecision / time-wasting then you are quite happy to indulge in the same. The moment someone ticks you off you rage on the forum about how you have been wronged when you yourself are quite happy to do the same thing.

I thought I would give this a wide berth but I have also heard from Madhav about his run-in with you and this seems to be your MO.

In the case of Dr. Harish you seem to be a half-hearted buyer. At best you wasted his time, worst case you led him to believe you were serious. Apparently your friend wasn’t as keen on the product as you thought. You wanted to help your friend.

In our interaction you felt I had wronged you by selling my lens to a friend of mine. My friend took the lens to test it out and decided he didn’t want to give it back and paid me 5/6K less than what number we had discussed. I called you soon after to inform you of the sale. So I am not allowed to satisfy my friend’s desires but you are allowed to mislead another forum member because your friend changed his mind?

Do you see the hypocrisy here?

I will let Madhav get into the details of how you handled the transaction with him.

In a nutshell, you are happy to inconvenience others but they aren’t allowed to do the same to you no matter what their reason might be.

"lowballing" is, I guess, offering an amount less than the seller considers the minimum. If that's what they think, it is what they think. No point in complaining about it.

Agree. What is wrong with lowballing. Did one's ego get busted because someone asked for a lower price? As long as it's in PM it's fine. I always low ball coz you never know what the actual worth of that item is till you receive it in your hand and you may actually get a deal that works for both sides.

Secondly, when did any buyer post a price that is not inflated with room to negotiate :)

The only recommendation is to ask yourself if you would sell that item for that price. If so, please go ahead and lowball :)

Sad to say but I think this should be a good learning exercise for you not to buy used camera equipment without thoroughly checking up on the item in question.

I am awaiting for justified actions.
I have not heard back from the moderators inspite of sending RAF files through email.
The no. Of damaged pixels has increases upon using this camera. I did not do any slow shutter. Still, this is the scenerio.
How will this be solved ?

Dear Admin Bharat Verma,

I have transferred five Fuji RAF files to the email id you sent via PM.
I have included the test pics with in camera 'long exposure noise reduction on' after you mentioned.

The transfer is done by large file sharing portal, Wetransfer.com
It will keep you a link in your email id, that is active for 7 days.

Kindly do the needful and also let me know if i need to do anything more on this issue.

thank you. Best.

I thought it's lingering.

Sorry my bad

I may not have had a good experience with Parampreet but this kind of scrutiny in a used camera is frightening to say the least.
If the buyer had such a usage scenario then definitely needs to be checked beforehand. Hobbyist like me hardly know our equipment this well.

On this context I would side with Parampreet though. Peace

haha. why are you rehashing a conversation on this thread that has been sorted out?

The buyer talks about the issue being "an ARRAY of 24 identifiable damaged pixels."
Irrespective of whether or not his use is specific, he did have every right to raise this issue up with the seller.

This is not about who you side with. The buyer and seller (seem) to have sorted it out.
From what was mentioned in the thread, it seems like the seller paid for the repair eventually. (commendable)
