torben_daltoft Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 <p>After receiving the lots I won at their 39<sup>th</sup> auction (SEP 2011) I, once again, found defective or sub-standard items compared to their descriptions<br> Looking back at my previous activities (1<sup>st</sup> lot won at Auction 33, JUN 2009) I see a systematic discrepancy between descriptions and items’ condition; always in the favor of LP. E.g. lately a defective Leicameter MR, a Leica M1 with vulcanite damages not mentioned in LP’s description, and a loaded Hasselblad film back, which documents that their descriptions are poetry not based upon examination<br> Stay away (if you can’t inspect before bidding)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

torben_daltoft Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 <p>Well, in reality the transaction costs (auction fee, hammer whatever and shipment) AND back again steals a lot/the bargain. PROBLEM is that these people are not honest!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torben_daltoft Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 <p>So, now they are at it again (two new auctions coming up) They now hardly declare the functionality of the items Except 'seems to be a nice.....' And yet mis-label items, e.g. a 'Leicameter MR4' that was never anything like that (for more reasons)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
