I was a photography student at FAU and needed a 35mm camera for a 6 week summer class. I went to Delray Camera Shop and asked the man working behind the counter if he could please give me the best deal on a camera considering I only needed it for 6 weeks. He began showing me the used cameras that were for sale and convinced me to buy a Pentax K1000. I had never used a 35mm camera before and was completely clueless on how to even take a picture with it. He showed me exactly what I needed to do and assured me the ""used"" camera was ""in great shape"". He charged me $145 and after shooting 2 rolls of film, I got into the blackroom at school only to realize my ""$145, in great shape camera"" was defective/BROKEN!!!!! I went online to Ebay and found the exact same camera for $35! Not only did he rip me off but he sold me a broken camera! BEWARE!!!
Pros: Good at manipulating ignorant buyers
Cons: Sold me a broken 35mm camera
