Tripod help - eBay seller is not able to help

[rocketdogbert]

Guys,
Can anybody confirm the shortest leg length, minimum height splayed and max load on this? I’ve been offered it at £345

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/187154574600

I’m not at all sure English is the sellers first language and they don’t seem to be able to answer my basic (to me?) questions

Thanks in advance

Looks like a lowepro camera tripod. Must be gold plated carbon fibre for that price.

Max load is 40 lbs.

Minimum height is 3.4 inches.

Not sure what you mean by shortest leg length, but the tripod folds down to 19 inches.

There are safer/better/cheaper alternatives out there.

EBay, run, run away, don’t look back, like a nuclear bomb is coming.

I would be tempted to look at wex for tripods, they do a good range of different manufacturers

I know. I was hands on with some Sunwayfoto kit at the Trafalgar Arms Fair today

It’s a RRS they are very good quality from the ones I’ve seen. Much better than Chinese made tripods.
