***Watch out for this guy!!!***
please see this past thread and read below for more info and a taste of what's to come if you buy from this "classy" guy:

He will sell you trash if you're not careful. I was one of the unlucky ones and wound up with a fungus cooke 20-100 lens from this guy that was disgusting and beyond repair. The fungus has since grown back since the repair by Bernie at Super 16 (which Kirk was supposed to pay for). I trusted him too because he was a "name in the business" with a good "track record". BS - this guy is a piece of work and real great to work with if you want high blood pressure and to be stuck with a hefty service bill ,and be belittled and cursed at along the way. By far the most unprofessional "filmmaker/ seller" I have EVER dealt with in my entire life.
Don't' say you haven't been warned folks.
IF you avoid my advice, please REQUIRE that the camera and all the delicate electronic items be review by RED first before sore ding a dime. And if something needs to be fixed and serviced by RED first, you let him pay the bill first then buy once RED signs off on the condition.
Believe me, the lens I originally purchased was claimed to have been "serviced" and "top condition" too before I purchased it. Yet some how the amazon jungle grew in it during shipping to me or something...lol Anyways, I'd hate myself for not trying to save one of my beloved Reduser good guys out there from being screwed over
I recently purchased another Cooke lens from a great Reduser with a great track record. Sure I paid good money for it, but at least my lens is great and the guy I worked with was a sweet soul.
KARMA is a bitch - so I know the universe will work it all out for Mr. Fraser
Happy Holidays y'all![]()
HaHaa, funny! The cockroach or aka "The Whining Pig" has returned. I thought I've put you in your place too, guess not. Adam, we don't believe you, you'll need more then just you to say I'm a bad guy. Ask the other buyers, no complaints. I understand you can't satisfy everyone's needs, and I hate to say it, but you're the epitome of a guy shopping for a NEW CAR in a USED LOT. The worst person to sell anything to. HaHaa.
Happy Holiday to you too, and tell the wife I said hello too.
