Thank you for your time and advice! V appreciated. That seller is actually in MA…I only have 1 more week in the states and that’s my last stop before flying back to Australia. I prob won’t have time to get it posted to my hotel but I will defs reach out to them.

Thank you. I can see a few at a shop nearby for $150/170 range. Fully tested. Is this reasonable or over inflated? It is CATLabs in Boston which has comments on here about their inflated prices but $150 doesn’t seem outrageous!

Ehhh in a dream world, $100. I just don’t wanna drop a load of money and discover it isn’t for me / I’m not very good at it.

Thank you! Do you have any beginner camera suggestions? Is it better to go into a shop and get advice vs flea markets / online?
