I was considering getting a Benbo tripod, thinking hard about it and chatting with someone, on here, who had one for sale. Only to be outsmarted by my wife who, as a 'prize' for going 12 weeks without tobacco, presented me with a brand new Trekker Mk3. THEN...
I was quietly doing 'stuff' in my Man Cave when the Rev Mrs Tommo appeared and asked me if I'd seen the local auction company's latest online catalogue. Well I hadn't so, putting aside the 'stuff' I was doing, I sat back and began to peruse their wares. Lot 1.. Lot 40, 55, 80, 150, 200, 225... 226..!! A BENBO No1 Tripod, listed at £10-£40..!!
So the sale was this morning. I entered a bid of £30.00... and waited, and waited... Up flashes "Bid Ending Soon", which means in less than five seconds.. YEAH.. I won. A used, but not abused, Benbo 1 with a large Benro ball head and Cullman QR plate...
What's that saying about what do you get for a man who has everything..?? Oooh look at me, Benbo No1 and Benbo Trekker Mk3.
It will be a while before this silly smile I'm sporting wears off.
