setup: sony nex 7 with sel 50 f1.8 | 50mm | f2.8 | ISO100 | 0.8s | tripod | lightroom 4.1

i necessarily need an ally! since two weeks i keep struggling with an incompetent ebay seller that has already sent me a wrong item for the second time. four weeks ago i'd ordered three simple macro tubes for my nex 7 from a chinese ebay seller with mostly good ratings for the reason that i'd like to have the option to shoot with a greater magnification if necessary.

two weeks ago i had my first rude awakening: the tubes that had been sent to me didn't fit for sony nex e-mount. some sample and evidence pics and mails later they apologised in person and promised to send me the correct article next time. this one arrived yesterday but it is anything except correct. they've really managed to send me the exactly same wrong article of their first attempt again. unbelievable.

now i have to write mails and shoot evidence pics again. really annoying. anyhow during this time sideshow bob may reside in the otherwise useless bunch of adaptors and tubes and spread fear and terror.

maybe i'm going to attach today's pic to my recent evidence mail. i think bob would be a good confederate.
