I just bought a camera!
I was looking for an Olympus waterproof shock proof 7.1 pixle deelio and got a little carried away when I saw what I thought I was looking for for under $150 with bidding ending in 15 minutes. I bid just a little higher than the current bid and got it. I realized after that I am not getting water proof per se, more like water "resistant", no where does it say shock or crush proof, BUT: it is an Olympus Stylus 830 with 8.0 MP and 5x zoom, and it's a purdy kind of orange. And it has a warranty. And all told, shipping and taxes it was less than $130. The stores I price compared at were all over $240 so yeah me. The camera I wanted had some cool features, but the retail on it was over $400! I could have picked one up for half that, but I should be more conservative with my money. I think I will be happy with my purchase. I wanted the shock proof because my coolpix camera that I paid $250 for 2 years ago broke when I dropped it on a tile floor from 2 feet high. It still takes pictures in daylight but the zoom is broken and the lens seems to let too much light in in low light pictures. It makes me so angry I have not touched it in months. So I am curing my wrath by spending 2 nights pay on a shiny new (referbished) camera. I hope I am more careful with it than I was the last one. Should I get insurance?
