$770? say the cam costs (not too sure of the market price) $550-600,
then housing costs $150-200? (brand new is ~$300, last time).

You may want to ask around the market rate.
But I would personally sell my cam and housing alsor around $700-750?
Ask around, dun want to spoil market, not sure of the price as I said.
Think some of them here sold theirs before, they would know the price better.

As for housing, have to see condition. Prices varies.
Quite a bit of factors to consider if you are fussy
Then again, u have to see what other stuff the seller throws into the package.
Might be worth more then what you tell us.

the major "problem" is it is not easy to find this setup....worth is relative. i kow of some photographers willing to pay brand new price for second hand sets becos they are hard to come by....

Lanxx: so where is my kopi for being middleman?

Eric, how to treat kopi when I have not received the $$$?
Anyway, I charged him less for the housing, to be fair to him.
Ask ppl to pay brand new price for 2nd hand stuff, I won't do this
kinda of thing
