I wasn't sure where to post this, but I have to lament a bit. I'm not actively trying to sell my old gear, but I got a card from an outfit looking to buy used equipment for resale. There was a toll-free phone, so I gave a call asking about one of my roll film systems.
I have two Mamiya RB 67 bodys, 90mm, 127mm, 150mm soft, 180mm, prism finder, three 120 backs, Poloroid back, bellows hood. All of this is well used, in good working order. The following is from the email then sent me:
Dear Pete,
Thank you for choosing used camera buyer.com! We would like to make you an offer on your camera equipment. This offer is based on the condition and used market value of your equipment. Also keep in mind that we buy camera equipment to resell, similar to a wholesaler. Please take into consideration the impact digital photography has had on the value of film and digital equipment.
We would like to offer you $350.00 for your camera equipment. This offer is good for 10 days from today.
Pretty sad, huh?
