After sifting through reviews and search results, the very same camera came up on Ebay, £19.95 including postage. I thought it must be a scam right? But I was prepared to risk less than £20. It turned up a day later and was absolutely immaculate, better than my old one, not a mark on it. It didn't even look like it had ever been used. Has to be one of the best bargains ever.
