That's not entirely true-- KEH has photos of their used items...

on eBay.

Where is this tradition of calling eBay an "auction site" coming from? Especially annoying to see how people stubbornly put an extra effort to type this stream of useless characters multiple times in a single post. This weido-jargon is very off-putting to newcomers and we need more people to shoot film.

eBay is by far the easiest way for new people to get into shooting film. Sorry, but your favorite "used gear store" has no inventory, mediocre 14-day return policy (not enough to shoot and develop a roll for people who rely on labs) and no actual photos of items they sell.

This is from the time when APUG did not want to show up on searches for eBay. It is a long held tradition.

Magic. Name the devil and he'll get you.

Ebay started as an auction-only site. Aahhh the good old days.

Important Update:

This seller has just received 8 negative feedback on the auction site in the past month with sales totaling $14k

Absolutely shocking - all Hasselblad related camera sales. Mostly items not received followed by no communication, and no refund.

Which seller are you describing? Hassywest? I looked up that name on the search tool and could not find any activity.

This very odd and something does not add up. The negative feedbacks for Hassywest all date to Nov. 5, 2020, and more recently. All previous transactions covering 67 pages have a positive feedback. It is out of character for a seller to suddenly become a cheater. Two hypotheses:
1. Postal service has been slow with deliveries. I myself have been waiting 8 days for a 3-day package from Maine. Remember, the scumball postmaster general DeJoy modified and changed staffing at many of the distribution centers to ensure that mail-in ballots would not be delivered on time.
2. The account has been hacked and someone else is using the Hassywest seller's account.
