skyblue Posted January 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 sooo, i bought an L20B cam from a guy on the face. he hooked me up cheap so i was stoked. today i got it and opened the poorly packaged tube he put it in and this is what i got. so now what do i do? i messaged him but he hasn't replied. it was only $30 shipped. i doubt he got insurance on it. I feel like he's partly responsible because there was no newspaper or foam peanuts or anything inside the tube to protect the cam. just the cam and the ends taped closed. do i make a stink or just lick my wounds? are cams pretty fragile? or was this one on its way out?

Ranman72 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 that sucks I believe because they are hardened they can be fragile especially with the shippers throwing packages around like they are toilet paper 1 Quote Link to comment
shacks510 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 That sucks. It'd make a good baton. Quote Link to comment
