Feedback - GRINS

[nirmalya]

Hi Akash

Thanks a ton for the nice transaction! It's really surprising that we first came into communication in 2006 and only after 6 years we were able to meet today!

Since previously also I posted a positive feedback for you and since you already have a nice feedback in this same page just two posts ahead , I will keep it very short and simple.

You are that type of buyer/seller whom every other person will want to deal with! You are sincere, prompt and courteous with a nice smile on your face. When I was talking with you I was feeling as if we have already met somewhere! I couldn't come to you home today for the busy schedule – will positively make it on another day.

Thanks to Mehtas as well for hosting this like minded community!

Cheers
Nirmalya

Thank you for your generous words Shantanu,

The experience was mutual  :)
There are times when one has to let go something he/she loves very much and my situation was no different with the lens I sold you.  In your hands I'm sure this lens gets a great new home.
Would love to deal with you again.

Was a pleasure to deal with Akash (user ID: Skyfish:  http://www.jjmehta.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=7336)

1. The lens was shipped on the same day after receiving funds.

2. Better-than-OEM packing (Multiple bubble wraps, corrugated sheets and plastic packing).

3. Shipping tracking number, URL given - and if this wasn't sufficient, he gave me regular updates on shipping status on email.

4. Gave me a day to test the lens to my satisfaction as I couldn't see the lens before the purchase.

5. Gave me important data about the lens and its functioning.

Very professional and transparent yet friendly communication. Highly recommended.

Regards,
Shantanu

Thanks to Mr. Govind (User name : govindrv)... Recently bought Canon 100-400 L. Very smooth transaction and lens was exactly in the condition which he stated.

Thanks Hayath.
Surely nothing more than a phone call is needed to book and item? That's an honest question - I've got something on hold since June for someone who can pick it up and pay only in August and I'm puzzled over what else would be required apart from the word of a fellow JJMF member.
PS: you put up with my busy schedule too, so it worked both ways.

The 2nd  :D goes for Vikram Franklin:
I got 2 nikkor lenses from him. Luckily he is from Bangalore so we just spoke, met and did the transaction. It was really that smooth and simple. The condition of the lenses were just as he had described. And he also gave some very useful tips on infrared and lanscape photography which was an added bonus.

So another 5 STAR to Vikram as a seller.

Thanks Anirban - it's just too much of a coincidence that both those lenses you bought from me had been earlier used extensively on the same body you got from someone else. They're finally united under a single owner  :)

I recently sold 3rd party cokin P filter system to one gentleman who goes by the name Photo_Grapher (http://www.jjmehta.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=7150).  I had to ship the item to Kolkata and I hit a wall realizing about the mandatory requirement of form 50 (http://www.jjmehta.com/forum/index.php/topic,20436.0.html).  Upon communicating the same to Photo_Grapher, he took the initiative to dig further into the matter all by himself and suggested me ways in which I could ship the item to him.  Since the shipping involved risk, I agreed to take 50% at my end, but the gentleman went ahead and paid me in entire even before he could receive the item through the unforeseen channel. 

Dealing with Photo_Grapher has not just been an experience in itself, but also gave me a chance to know another warm person.  I couldn't have asked for more in a deal.

It was my pleasure to be acquainted with my new found friend, who is known as "skyfish". I am sorry, I am not very good with words, so let me tell you mathematically how I rate him:
Overall rating: 10/05, no you did not misunderstand it, neither did I type wrong, I honestly rate him 10 in a 5pt scale.
Sorry, let me say this again, I am not good with words and my words are not good enough to do justice to the great character of a gentleman like "skyfish".

Yes, Akash/skyfish (why skyfish, Akash?) is a very nice guy.
And, no, you are not "not very good with words"; you are very good at communicating your thoughts - never sell yourself short on that score.
