Need Assistance on Selling Camera

I am looking at selling my camera setup and was wondering what a fair price to ask for it, I am going to post it for sale on the forum here.

Pentax K10 with 18-55 Lens
Sigma APO DG 70-300 Lens
Pentax Battery Grip D-BG2

Thanks for the advice.

What condition? How many shutter actuations?

Its in like new condition. How do I get the shutter actuations off it ? Tells you how much I used it

I don't own a Pentax, so I had to Google the answer. This is what I found - »www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pent···10d.html

As far as price, all I can suggest is to check out eBay (sold items) and BHPhoto used equipment pricing - »www.bhphotovideo.com/c/browse/Us···94247188

Without looking up current values, I would ballpark it around $300-$400. Start it at $400 but be willing to be talked down to $300.

50 to 75% of what you paid for it depending on condition. Maybe a little more if you still have the box, manuals, etc.

At this point I would say more towards 50% especially unless very few shutter trips. I sold mine after I got a K20 and got pretty good money just 1 gen back... but now I would not expect more than %50 and even then not many takers. The K10 and 20 were much more true SLR capable than some of their minor more auto lower price SLR, but resolution wise 20 and esp 10 petty limited by today's standards. Still very versatile but that's the limitation.

And while I now have astronaut white KX (great in intense Keys sun for not getting hot vs black in direct sun for long periods) and can do video (something many here long swore a DSLR would never do), but still not as flexible as the K20 I still have... but again I would just for the lower res be surprised to get more than 50% value from it.

Mind you though I wanted to do serious planned photography I would still us the K20 over the KX for its much higher versatility over resolution.

Thank all of you that responded and gave me a good idea of what amount to ask for, now I will get it ready to post in the For Sale forum.

Thanks once again
