I wouldn`t trust that with an inch of my life. Something tells me he decided to clean it up and didn`t bother to dry it off... God knows what else he has done to it...

So you won't buy something because the seller wiped the front with a wet rag?

Either the seller tried to clean it up for the pic, used WAY too much liquid, and didn't even bother to dry it completely, or he just brought it in from the rain or a leaky garage. Doesn't exactly instill trust in the seller now does it?

I wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot pole.

Given that he's in San Francisco, that was my thought as well.

That's the only nice part about AZ - all my gear stays dry because we only average 7 inches of precipitation per year.

it is condensation, if you look like close the big drops seems to be falling meaning they were somewhere up before. the rest of the faceplate is filled with tiny drops that looks like condensation will look on any other aluminum surface.

You'd have thought that he would have noticed that his own pictures give the impression of there being water all over it before he posted them.

So is condensation not water? I don't care if it is the tears of a virgin mother, water and electronics don't belong together.
