$150 for:

2 Manfrotta light stands brand new in the box

2 head unit adapters for umbrella/flashes,

3 wescott 43" umbrellas (2 regular one gold)

Had to pull over and take a quick shot since my GF talked me into hassling with meeting the guy and picking the stuff up. I messed up and made her look fat and she's scrawny but I start lighting class at the university next week and will ask for big help!

At least you managed to light her and keep that nice sunset without blowing it.... at this point its just positioning.

We don't have Craigslist locally, but do have Kijiji, an arm of eBay, supposedly works the same. I cruise the listings in cameras daily, have found some great deals in the past several years and have sold some of mine too. Great way to sell and buy - no fees or taxes. The site also offers me some amusement, with the prices some people ask for their OLD film cameras. Since they paid $600-800 for them 25 years ago, they seem to think they are worth $200.00 these days. More like $25.00.

I also visit their sites in two nearby cities, 100 and 60 miles away. Today our daughter in law is picking up a Canon Elan 7e body for me in one of the cities where she works one day a week. I couldn't resist the $30.00 price to have it in my collection.

I LOVE Craig's List. You can find stuff for ridiculous deals if you stick to your guns and are patient.

Same with selling stuff. Gotta love a free market.
