You want more than what's on there already?

OK

My 5Dii, now 18 months old, has been trouble free over 20,000 shots.
I recently bought a Steadicam Merlin for it from Warehouse Express over
the web. First time I had used them. Price was right. Service was
faultless, next day delivery arrived on time.

It seems to me that the major clue in this case is that the dealer is afraid
to send the camera back to Canon. I would infer that it's a gray-market camera
that wasn't sold as such. Which is probably why it didn't get fixed when the
original owner had it. (I assume it's obvious that the camera had been
returned by someone else earlier.) The fact that the purchaser seems reluctant
to cause too much trouble for the dealer may mean that she knew, or at least
suspected, that there was something shady about the deal from the beginning. I
wonder whether she paid anything like the going price.

I think I'll stick with B&H and Adorama.

I've had mine for a while now and after 20K + shots not a single
problem.

Any manufacturer can produce bad samples. This guy sounds like he
should exchange it.
