Selling used equipment....
Dave
No need to bother with ebay and such like Just PM all the details to me and if there is anything of interest I'll offer a genuinely fair price for it - honest
Seriously though, the value of any used item will depend on what people are prepared to pay, which may or may not match or come close to your own perception of their worth. My advice, at least in the first instance, is to list the items and their condition on the forum and invite offers; most of which are likely to be reasonable. Or, if you prefer and have some idea of what you would be prepared to accept, list each item with an OIRO amount. If you receive none, or feel that the amounts offered are derisory, you could always try again on ebay.
Unless you are desperate, I wouldn't advise selling or part-ex to a dealer.
Good luck however you decide to proceed.

If you have a FA 200mm macro it's worth £50 and I bagsy first refusal.
Don't listen to Mike, it's worth £55 of anybody's money, preferably mine.
£56 for me.
