I need a Digital camera

jodie

Im not sure if Im allowed to do this but i am after a second hand digital camera that has lots of pixels and possibly zoom, I want it for under £70.

I have been trawling through ebay (I have the money in paypal you see and none in my bank, lol) and am struggling to find the 2nd hand ones, just the hong kong ones.

Does anyone know an easier to find one on Ebay or another site that would accept paypal?

Have you tried used cameras on amazon?

There are various search options on ebay. On the search results page, on the left hand side, there are more search options. Select "UK only" and then click on search will get rid of the Hong Kong ones.

The search results can also be sorted by price, this will enable you to locate the
sub £70 cameras. You can also select display "Buy it Now" listings.

Hi jodie if you still haven`t found a camera.Try something like this

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Olympus-Camedia-C-350-Zoom-digital-camera-3-2-megapixel_W0QQitemZ270024042226QQihZ017QQcategoryZ31388QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

on ebay.This is how I bought my last digital camera for the wife.We have three
olympus cameras and all have performed well.
Ensure the one you get has optical zoom.

TBH when I was looking for another camera on ebay I found it was cheaper to go to one of the large supermarket stores and buy a new one! for most purposes anything above 3 to5 Mpixels is a waste and you can pickup 3MP cameras with optical zoom for under £70 new. Big point is IGNORE digital zoom its worthless and just ruins the picture quality.

You could try a search of digital cameras on ebay which don't contain the word new for starters. Something like this:

If you could stretch your budget another £10 you could get a new Nikon:

EDIT:
In fact only £3.50 over budget from Amazon:
