Sea&Sea Underwater Housing + Dome Port - For Nikon D200/12-24mm Wide Angle Lens
I bought this Sea&Sea system on Wetpixel in June 2008. The first time I tried it out (in a pool) it leaked because the extension ring was scratched, but after a full service and repair by Aquaphot [http://www.aquaphot.com/] in December 2008, it has been working perfectly. The system was pressure tested for 1h at 60m and the dome port has been nicely polished (cf invoice: http://www.evernote.com/pub/jayhem/public#...fc7a61&b=0). I can really recommend Aquaphot for this kind of work, Kevin is doing an amazing job.
I've only used this system on a few occasions: a big dive trip in Belize and during a few freediving pool competitions in the UK. The system should still be in excellent working condition and is ready to go underwater as-is, nothing is missing. In the right conditions, it will produce amazing results. It's the perfect system for a beginner underwater DSLR photographer, as it's very quick and easy to set up, very robust and costs a fraction of a new system. There is only one O-ring to check between the dives and it's almost impossible to make a mistake that would cause a flooding.
The system is complete with two spare O-rings, a little bit of spare grease, manuals, O-ring remover, etc.
If you're interested and can make it to London (UK), I'm happy to show you the system, explain how to set it up, and I can even meet you in a swimming pool, so you can try it out and see by yourself how easily you can get amazing underwater shots.
The Sea&Sea System:
Housing : £600
Dome Port : £220
Lens Gear : £80
Extension Ring : £40
--------------------------------------------------
TOTAL : £940 (Total value new ~ £3025)
==================================================
Buy the whole camera/lenses/housing/port-system for £2340.00 instead of £2505.00 (original value of about £5500). This includes camera body, lenses, filters, bag, housing, port and all accessories, complete and ready to take for dives.

Sea&Sea DX-D200 Underwater Housing
Good condition, works perfectly except for the leak detector, but this should be easy to fix or replace, although it isn't really needed. It has been damaged when I tried it for the first time and it flooded due to a damaged extension ring, but after I had the housing serviced and the extension ring fixed, it has been working perfectly ever since. This housing is very robust and easy to use, perfect for a beginner underwater DSLR user.

Original value ~ £2200
Sea&Sea Fisheye Dome Port - Part # 56401
http://www.camerasunderwater.co.uk/slr/seaandsea/ports.html
Good condition. bought second-hand in June 2008, serviced in December 2008 by Aquaphot [http://www.aquaphot.com/] where scratches were removed.
Original value ~ £570
Sea&Sea Lens Gear for Nikkor 12-24mm - part # 31107
http://www.camerasunderwater.co.uk/slr/seaandsea/ports.html
Very good condition, works perfectly.
Original value ~ £105
Sea&Sea SX Extenion Ring - part # 50261
http://www.camerasunderwater.co.uk/slr/seaandsea/ports.html
Good working condition. It was scratched when I bought it (2nd hand) and caused a leak, but it has been repaired in December 2008 by Aquaphot [http://www.aquaphot.com/] and has been working perfectly since. I'm selling it for a greatly reduced price because it might not resist water damage as well as a new one, but it's working fine for now and will last for years if you treat it well. I haven't seen any corrosion so far and doubt there will ever be.
Original value ~ £150, asking £40
