Hello All,

Trying to get an idea of the current value of my gear for two reasons, a- if I can,I will sell them all to save up for a house and b- insurance purposes

So here it goes :

1 Two Pentax K5 Bodies
2 One original DBG4 Battery Grip
3 SIGMA 500MM F4.5 APO EX DG LENS
4 Sigma APO 100-300mm F4 EX DG4 Tamrom 70-200mm F2.8 IF Di SP
5 Tamron 90mm F2.8 Macro Di SP
6 Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 EX DG
7 Tamron 10-24mm SP F3.5-4.5
8 Pentax 50mm F1.4 SMC FA
9 Sigma EM-140 DG PA
10 Sigma APO 1.4X EX DG
11 Sigma APO 2X EX DG
12 Yongnuo YN560 Speedlite
13 Yongnuo YN560 Speedlite
14 Pentax 360 FGZ
15 Benro C2692T
16 Vanguard GH-100
17 Manfrotto 393
18 Benro B1

Thanks,

Karthik

If you sell them you won't need to bother insuring them! What you can get selling them and insuring them at replacement value might be quite different. Insurance value might be cost new - check SRS prices or have your purchase receipts to hand, second hand prices would be what you can get which depends on all manner of factors, mainly what someone is willing to pay. A trawl of eBay (check sold prices: not what some are hoping for!) and the site here should give some idea of current going rates but even then it depends on condition and to some extent location. (Sending a bulky package half way round the world can be expensive and off-putting.)

I don't really think we can do you a valuation, but as John K said, check eBay and SRS.
Best regards, John

Have a look at the classifieds here too. Probably a bit short of the price of a house, depending where you want one of course.

The Sigma 100-300 F4 should sell rather quickly.
