I would like to give a HUGE thank you to Chicago Prime member Bylek (Paul)
I have been looking for a LONG time for a Canon ef300mm 2.8L camera lens for my camera and photography hobby. I found one on Craigslist in Chicago. I put out a "need help" post on the Chicago area forums. That same day Paul called me up and offered to help. i originally was just looking for someone with camera lens knowledge to meet with the seller and check out the lens. Paul was kind enough to offer to help..... and did so in a BIG way. Paul met with the seller, checked out the lens AND negotiated a deal for the lens for $100 less than the seller told me was his bottom line. And it doesn't stop there.... Paul went so far as to pay for the lens with his cash, then pay for and ship the lens to me again with his own cash... and then TRUST me to follow thru with the purchase and send him the funds. I have never met Paul and he has never met me.... I am telling you, in my line of work I seldom see this kind of help given by complete strangers... on the contrary, i am usually dealing with some poor guy that gets scammed by an over the internet purchase.... I must say i was kinda skeptical at first, but in the long run i trusted a guy that is known on this forum..... so..... THANK YOU PAUL..... YOU ARE A CLASS GUY.... If i can ever repay the favor to you or ANY other member her on Prime, it would be my pleasure
