Default just bought trail camera $85

I just bought a trail camera for $85 bucks that someone made off ebay. I know i dont exepect a whole lot out of it but I cant afford $300-400 for a good one and all i want is a few rolls of film. Anyone know where I can get another reliable camera for less than $100??

The stealth cameras are pretty affordable, but I don' t know how good they are.

I got one a couple weeks ago.I have put 4 rolls of flim,total of 96 pic' s and only got 6 good one out. all the rest are just blank.no pic. at all,can' t figure whats happening.I know it works,because I set it and walked in front and it took one of me.thats the best one on the roll,one coon , the rest blank.

I am calling them tomorrow to see if they know what is happening.

I' m trying to get my brother inlaw to buy one. There is a $20 mail in rebate in the Octobet issue of Bowhunting magazine. They are on sale at Dick' s for $70. My wife bought me a Non-Typical 4 years ago and she would kill me if I bought another one.

Suthernbuck,

i' m a little curious about the auction off ebay. i remember a site where some guys give away free plans to help you build your own trail cam. they have the plans copyrighted, but they are having a huge problem with people using their plans for profit. could you tell me who you bought it from so they can check it out.
