This post poses an interesting point: If someone has a NEW (that is, unused)
camera or lens for sale, and someone tries it for two weeks, but then
returns
it for some subjective reason, is the item still NEW? Or is it used (mint).
Dealers or camera stores build a profit into their sales, and, if an item is
returned,
can have it repackaged and sold as new (ever buy a brand new item and notice
that it is "not quite right". . .in some way?? I have, and have asked for
another example. . .)
Just curious.
