Die Die where to sell?

fintan · 28th May 2006

I have a konica Minolta Z3 that no one on clubsnap wants to buy due to obvious reasons.

Any shops that buy cameras as 2nd hand?

hmmm what's the "obvious reason" that caused no one on CS to wanna buy the Z3? something wrong with the camera?

can always sell it on yahoo auctions? But you should try to be truthful about the condition of the camera if there's anything wrong with it.

there are so many cameras out in the market superior to the Z3.

No problems with the camera , just want to sell it to get a 350D.

Die die for sure cash converter will take in your camera.
Provided you are not fussy with price.

user111 · 28th May 2006

to help your sales, price it at $200 or less if u havent already done so. state that it is for budget users. then hope that some student or foreign worker will buy it. going to cash converrter is no point..they offer too low.

you can consider TCW, Prime (next to CP), or Alex (near EG). even if they don't buy it from you (or direct trade-in), they may still consider placing it there for consignment sale.

Not being able to sell may be due to yr asking price too high, or the cam being too old or something.

Try 2nd hand shops as said earlier.

No offence, but if nobody here wants it (and CS is a pretty large community), why would 2nd hand camera shops want it? (Unless you practically give it to them for free).

Nay,,, no offence taken... i just sold my Z3 to Alex photo for $110...no choice man..i was cornered. If i dragged this on , i wouldn't have the $$ for a 2nd hand 350D.

slooow · 30th May 2006

goodness $110? i would have kept it and use as a pns backup camera...

i am still keeping my c5050z olympus till now.... 2 years older than your z3 hehehe

I think its a little too big for a bring-anywhere pns to complement a dSLR... still I would have kept it.... $110 can't really go very far in the realm of dSLRs....

zcwnfx · 31st May 2006

yup yup, maybe keep it as a cam that u will bring to places that isnt that safe to lug ur dslr around?

110...... judging the price u bought.... huge depreciation!

fintan · 31st May 2006

i really had no choice , i was short by a couple of tens of dollars , wanted to make sure i had enough to buy the 350D..or else it might get snapped up. And its the june holidays..so not working.

zcwnfx · 1st June 2006

icic... nvm lah, buy liao dont go and think liao!

my fren also want to sell his old ixus, i think will get lower than ur Z3

Seriously i would rather keep it then to sell at $110. U will never know when u will need it for travelling.

stk · 1st June 2006

I'm sure a good working Z3 can sell for more than $110 at the B/S section here.. I for one would be interested..

gktat1 · 1st June 2006

Hi...i own a Z3 b4 n managed to sell it off fer $300 on yahoo auction...
That was in early march....
