    Has anyone any recommendations as to where to sell gear? Am I best sticking with usuals of a done deal or adverts or is there somewhere I'm not considering?
    It's film, medium format kit, I don't want to try exchange or upgrade against other gear. Are there any specific places or sites for sales?

    Ebay ? If I was selling I'd probably list on adverts and ebay. Just out of ... curiosity, what kind of MF gear ?

    Ha! Don't get sucked in!
    It's a Bronica Gs-1 with full everything really, all in a flight case. It's a very sweet piece of gear, bit I just don't use it, and that's not cool. Good gear should get used.
    I hadn't thought about eBay, I've never sold through it. Must check out what fees are etc.
    Thanks for the tip.

    :-) I have an SQ-AI for 6x6 and a Mamiya Press & Fuji G690 for 6x9. 6x7 on the other hand ...

    Yeah, it has the 645, 6x6 and 6x7 backs, so it's really versatile, I really love it as a camera, but it makes me sad how little I use it.
    I could probably sell parts separately, maybe that'd make things smoother, but I've never sold gear before.

    There are multiple Facebook groups for this sort of thing, also, camera club members might be interested.

    I recently sold my hassie H1 and 80mm lens to a guy in USA.

    Adverts/done deal will attract a local audience and you will more than likely meet the person for the sale to be completed.

    Where did you sell the Hasselblad? I've got a H5 up on ebay but not that much interest.
