Well I posted a thread not so long ago about how you can't get bargains on eBay!
I've just won a manfrotto 685b with manfrotto head and quick release for the grand total of £80!! I think that's a good deal!!
Ssssshhhhh don't tell the wife!!!

Hi, I'm thinking of getting the 685b, don't suppose you can sum up your experiences with it, good or bad ?

good deal! I got one for a similar price a few months back but waited until 2am and the bids started going crazy! I think a lot of people use them auto bidding programs.

Was more looking for your thoughts on the monopod than the auction... Lol. Cheapest I can find is just over 100. Will bite the bullet at that price.

Any issues on walkabout ? Rain caused any rust or issues with the mechanism ? All extends / retracts ok ?
