I'd been watching this in case the price dropped to £175 again, but it's now even less. Other models are available from the same seller with similar discounts. The 3+ Silver and 3 Black are both £129.99.

It's got a 12 month warranty surely you could just return if it wasn't working?

I always buy fuji refurbished cameras from the fujifilm UK website. Refurbished fuji cameras have a lower failure rate than new cameras as they have all be individually hand checked by technicians. I have never received a refurbished fuji that was distinguishable from a new camera and I have never bought a dud. I did buy a new fuji many years ago I had to return under warranty as it had a fault.

Judging by Ebay prices, at least £70...
(I guess we are on a deals website for differing reasons :wink: )

Leave the bargains for the rest of us then :wink:
(This is the GoPro Ebay store. It isn't some tin pot Argos style operation where they bring stuff in, stick a refurb sticker on it, and send it back out).
Speaking of action cameras - I managed to pick up a Sony AS200V from Gumtree for £70 delivered (arrived this morning!). Including 2x official batteries, 1x 64GB UHS-1 Class 10 card, an official Sony selfie stick & wall charger. Having used GoPro's in the past, I don't think I could sacrifice the audio quality and the steadyshot of the Sony. The difference is really amazing!

Sadly " refurbished etc" as on any electronic device ,means it has been returned as the customer can't make it work properly . , or maybe changed their mind about the purchase . The seller may run standard tests and then resell as "tested " or refurbished . Maybe its just me but I would never buy a refurbished , reconditioned electronic item as its a 50/50 whether the item (particularly Laptops) was fixed ,was ok all the time , or maybe resold with the same fault it was returned for after running a quick test ,that presumably the consumer would do anyway .

Fair enough - I'm just not comfortable with refurbs , recons ( bad experiences ) - so I'll leave you with your " bargains " - saving - how much ? Hardly worth it in my very humble opinion , but possibly great for some .

I'd probably have bought a new one if the cost was comparable, but the cheapest I found was virtually double the price!
Individuals on ebay often class used items as like-new or refurbished when they aren't, so watch out for that. I didn't feel there was any risk in this case, and it's probably safer buying from here than some places that sell them new :smiley:

Whats the difference between this and the hero4 version? Can only really find the number of frames recorded in the hero4 is better at 2.7k and 4k?
