Default ddx 6x30 #205527 buyer notes

This set is currently on offer on german Ebay under # 270839786354 by zeugamt-berlin. This set was previously offered on German ebay on 20 September 2011 and at that point it had at least 10% paint loss from its case and had oxidation damage to prism screws and hinge As you will note below from the photos ddx 6x30 #205527 now looks like a very tidy original looking set.
I personally do not approve of quick buys and sales especially when it involves altering the appearance of an historical item to "add value" for a quick sale.
What do Forum members think about this practice?

(I have photos of ddx 6x30 #205527 on file as at 20 september 2011, but I did not retain the ebay tranaction number)

Thanks a lot.
Can you please show us the photos?

I wonder about nothing by this ebay member.
beware of this ebay-names:
zeugamt-berlin
oma-kalkbrenner
m-robespierre
zacharias_teller

this names belong to one person.

And the lens cover has been removed, along with the 'pimped' paint job you mentioned.

Regards,

And it (the lens cover) will be sold separately ...

Selling piece by piece is more profitable....
