QUOTE(futobuta @ Jun 16 2009, 11:24 PM) Kasihan lah the seller. Ppl also trying to earn a decent living. How the 2.8 ended up in a 4.0 box, that one, only the seller knows. Whether the seller/shop was trying any hanky panky, we should give them the benefit of doubt. I just hope that the person who sold u that lens is the boss n not the employee... else, he might have to make good the amount ( = potong gaji!!!!). Kasihaaaaaan....... "Demanding" for more items in exchange is like holding it at a ransom... not very good lah. Either u give it back, or u keep it. Don't 'bargain' like that. Just not right. It's like robbing a 80 year old granny in broad daylight

Returned it after realising it, and now I have no shame or guilt whenever I walk pass that shop.

This is to protect potential buyer of that lens in case it is sold as NEW by the shop. Lens should be sold as USED after it is returned.

I return it and now when ever I went to his shop... I get extra discounts and better services such as testing freaking expensive fishing toys

Because, some unlucky guy will eventually pay the FULL amount for a USED unit. I certainly hope I won't be the one.... because I do have interest in getting one. I'm sure the shop will sell it as NEW.

don't be too particular. throughly test the lens, if it's ok then just bring it home and enjoy.

huh? a lens being used a few times is considered used?! so what shall the shop do when you request to test it? tell you pay up then only test? else he needs to sell it as used?
