- z***u (93)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseThe camera arrived in a decent amount of time. It was packed with care. It arrived looking as described with all the accessories. However, once I put the batteries in although it turned on, sadly, the shutter didn’t work. It cannot take pictures due to a broken shutter. I reached out to the seller a couple of times but no response. I filed a defective item return with eBay. I was happy to find out it was a free return. That’s great customer service right there.Minolta Maxxum 5xi 35mm SLR Camera & Accessories (#267179359591)
