One more time as you've dodged the question twice previously, why are you selling your kit? Are you switching to another brand? If so, which one?
You don't have to answer the question of course, but it would be appreciated if you would at least acknowledge it, just once.

He's going for Canon, of course. If it were Nikon, he would say so, but people are embarrassed about buying Canons. Can't think why.One more time as you've dodged the question twice previously, why are you selling your kit? Are you switching to another brand? If so, which one?

One only get four or five tries....before one runs out of brands...
after four or five divorces, even the most self righteous will start to wonder... "was it me?"
Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Mike-P make him an offer. I made a cheekily low offer on the 50mm lens and Gary was very polite so I suspect he won't be offended.

To be honest I just don't liker making offers. At the end of the day the person selling has an idea in their head as to what they will accept so I would rather just know that from the beginning.
It saves unnecessary messing around imo and is actually part of the for sale process on other forums.
From there people have a baseline from which to make an offer if they wish.

I'm not disagreeing but in this case he seems tight lipped about what he wants and doesn't seem to be offended if you offer a really low amount and declines in the most polite manner

I agree with this - it's something I've changed my mind about recently, too. To be honest I just don't like making offers. At the end of the day the person selling has an idea in their head as to what they will accept so I would rather just know that from the beginning.
I've tried the 'make me an offer' approach when I've simply not known how much a couple of old lenses were worth - naively I imagined it would be a good way of finding out. I suppose it might be for items which are very much in demand.
But I think now it's better to just list things on eBay in that situation, or else just say what you want for it if you do have an amount in mind.

I believe Gary accepts offers for individual items...
None of these are invaluable imo

Fair enough, but a new post explaining that might be less confusing?
