Camera graveyard

[belgiumreporter]

After years of collecting cameras, i've ended up with what i like to call my camera graveyard.Sometimes you aquire cameras you don't really want, they came with others you've bought, are the result of a wrong decision or maybe you can't even remember where it came from or how you've got it. With camera prices being at an all time low, it's hardly worth the trouble of trying to sell them on line, people do want to pay 5 to 15€ for a camera, but when you add postage wich in some cases is more than the price of the camera the lust to buy fades away quicly. So they keep accumulating in boxes "for later use or just in case..." With spare room getting tight the moment has come to make up space and maybe a little money. The new garage sale season is starting so i might get rid of some of them or at least have a good chat with fellow camera collectors looking for a bargain.

good luck to you with that sale.. might have to have a bit of a cleanout myself soon, am looking at moving and am not going to have space for everything when I do... looks as if you have some interesting cameras in that lot my junkers consist of half a dozen point and shoot type cameras which are virtually worthless

Sounds awfully familiar... I try to sell the uninteresting stuff slowly - too slow to my wife's taste:-)

Sometimes I make an unexpected profit though, a Minolta 140EX plastic fantastic camera went to a very happy woman for € 20. She just couldn't cope with digital and wanted to revert to film!

I find myself similarly affected !
