Buying second hand? You MUST read this.

Everyone loves a bargain. Given the price of new photography gear, sometimes pre loved (I think that is a better term than second hand) gear can be the best bet. Many thanks to Micko, who passed this link on to me, it is a great guide on buying pre loved gear on craigslist, but I imagine it works just as well on eBay or camera forums.
