I am looking to sell some of my kit so I can dabble with another system and I can't figure out how much to ask for my k-01

Its boxed, had very little use but does not have original battery and charger rather an after market one.

Any advice?

No charger or battery does make a difference. How about the other accessories?

There aren't many K-01 cameras on eBay, I was looking the other day, so it's hard to say what the value is. What someone is prepared to pay I suppose, so an eBay auction may be the best thing. The market can then decide?
Best regards, John

I was watching a white one sold on a buy now yesterday, boxed with all accessories for £155inc postage.
I didn't buy at that but it was close, I nearly broke.

Its difficult, they very rarely come up for sale in the UK.

Everything else is there John just the original battery and charger are missing which I replaced with an aftermarket battery charger.

Yep my finger was about an inch away from pressing the buy it now button on that one to.....

One sold on Gumtree this week for £179 with 18-55mm lens boxed, mint and complete if that's any help to you.

I think around £150 to £160 is its mark. I paid £160 about 6 months ago for a mint black one, body only, 700 shutter actuations, boxed with all accessories and paid £230 for a mint silver one with a DA 40mm F2.8 XS lens (which is excellent BTW), boxed with all accessories.

I haven't seen any fetching more than around £175, which is criminal considering the high quality of this camera.

I think for that price u would rather keep it given how difficult they are to find here in the UK.

thanks for everyone's input.
