Used Camera Dealers (buyers)

Does anyone have positive experience with someone who buys used cameras? In doing some cleanup, I found a few old film Olympus cameras, a top of the line Kodak instatmatic, and a Kodak Signet from the 50's. I'm realistic in that none of these are very valuable but I'd like to deal with someone who I can feel confident is giving me a fair shake.
Thanks, Peter

Peter, if you're not into using such places as eBay there is always KEH. I've bought and sold through them for years and they have an excellent reputation. I would send them an email to see if they're even interested in any of your products. Another thought is selling through the APUG site, but you do have to be a full member to do that.

Peter,
KEH Camera - best place to start. I have had several dealings with these guys selling my used gear and I highly recommend them. Use Paul's link

Another vote for KEH. I have sold several things to them for a fair price. I just bought a Canon 24-105 rated as LN- which is absolutely pristine. I saved $450 over the new price. KEH has a reputation for delivering better than expected quality for used equipment.

Have both bought and sold at KEH and also recommend them highly.

Another vote for KEH. Reputable, honest, and fair.
