Tim, I did a fair bit of selling on ebay of linhof 6x9 recently for someone, very collectable in China and paid high prices. You have a nice outfit here. I didnt have any trouble with overseas buyers and they paid the high postage costs without a problem (up to £200.00). Worth a thought.

Hi Dave
Thanks, I might resort to eBay. I've used it plenty in the past and bought most of this kit there.
I was just hoping for an easy deal, if there is one going, the more i think about, for a monorail outfit. I had an Arca Swiss before and whilst it wasn't the lightest it was worth the weight.
I didn't realise there was a Chinese market for cameras, do you know if film is big business over there or if it's a collectors thing?

[Dave Tolcher]

Seemed to be collectors for the equipment I sold. It was fairly rough - had been badly stored and was still fetching in the £000s. Offers within Uk were in the £tens !!

Our of interest did you start bidding low or high?
My usual tactic is very low, but it sounds like there's a specific market to play to
