Olympus MJU300 - £69.09 inc vat + delivery @ Ebuyer

135 in stock

Please Note: The cameras are in the clearance section of Ebuyer. It doesn't say "used" in front of the description so I think they are new. If in doubt, or concerned about this do not buy.

Weatherproof metal body
3 megapixel
3x optical zoom
Uses xD cards

Before anyone moans about it only being 3 megapixel bear this in mind: Photographs are 2 dimensional objects. To double the resolution you need to multiply by 4 (not 2, as is usually assumed). Therefore, a 12 megapixel camera is twice the resolution of a 3 megapixel one.

    Ive been looking for a good deal on a digital camera.
    I've not bought on ebuyer before, are they a well known company?
    Can I send them an email to see if they are new or not? and does anyone have any codes that they have a box for? Sorry to ask so many questions

    Hi Nigel,

    If you ask around on MSE about Ebuyer you'll find a mixed bag of responses "love them or hate them". I'm in the Ebuyer lovers camp. I've had very few problems with them and spent £10,000+ in small orders over 4-5 years.

    Regarding contacting them, forget it. They are difficult to get in touch with. However, if you did decided to buy one & you found it wasn't new I'm sure they would refund your money. Contrary to popular belief, they are very good on the returns side.

    I've taken a screen grag of the offer. I'll post it below when I've put it on the net. Keep a copy of it if you buy the camera. If it's not as advertised the screen grab will allow you to prove Ebuyers error.

    If you're worried in any way about purchasing one, don't. Plenty of offers come up all the time. "Patience is a virtue", apparently.

    Oh they are well known alright, check out this thread

    E BUYER wheres my order?

    Some more opinions here.

    No you can't send an email, telephoning is usually only useful if you like listening to greensleeves and paying 8p per minute for the privilege! :mad:
