Could some body please advice me on how to sell my kit?

[F_M-R2]

Looking for a bit of advice. I have been lucky enough to win a Canon Eos 450d. This leaves my Nikon d40 and lens' redundant. I'm not looking to flog stuff on here but I have no idea on what a suitable price would be for kit like this second hand.

4 month old Nikon D40 camera along with a 4 month old Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG Macro lens and a Brand new ( only used for one evening this week when I got it.) Nikon AF-s DX 18-135mm F/3.5-5.6 G IF-ED. There is also all the original boxes, leads, chargers, software, an extra battery and a Nikon infra red remote.

I think I am doing the right thing by selling this lot and taking over from it with the Canon and adding a lens or two to it.

Any advice on price appreciated.

You might as well wait until you get the 450D and try it - see whether you prefer the handling of the Nikon or the Canon. I'd have thought eBay would be as good a place as any to sell the gear.

This reminds me that PH Classifieds still does not have a Photography section. I thought this was going to be attended to? Is Camping Equipment really more popular?

i'm thinking about buying a d40 but i suspect this lot'll be out of my price range :-(

Go on to eBay. Find Nikon D40s for sale. "Watch" about 10 of them. See what price they go for on average. Pretty much that's what you'll get for yours. It's straightforward - eBay isn't hard.

I asked the mods to change the link in the sticky at the top of the page but no-one has done it yet

Or if you register on eBay you can search for completed listings and see what they went for - saves the "watching" bit...
