Has anyone had any experience selling through MPB.COM? I have a Nikon D5200 body they have offered $205 - free shipping. They have good online reviews but I would like independent input. I have advertised it locally but no offers.

I have sold a few cameras and lenses to them and have no complaints at all.

Folks here have used both MPB and KEH with good results..

I have only used KEH and give them a thumbs up.

Have you considered offering it to a Hogger?

What is a Hogger?

BTW the quote from KEH was less than half the quote from MPB.

I was suggesting the OP try selling the camera on this forum.

Shipping is expensive. I know the "retail value and with free shipping the MPB quote is pretty good. I've been sitting on it for a while and passage of time = decrease in value.

Get a comparison quote from KEH.com

KEH quote was half what MPB offered.

$205 is a good offer I would think. However make sure they don't change their mind when they receive your camera.

Have sold, and bought, from mpb.com numerous times with entirely satisfactory results every time. Very convenient process and they pay shipping. Good luck.

I have used both Mpb and KEH. Both have been great. No issues with either. I have sold and bought from both

Here's what they've sold for on eBay recently. The $205 seems fair.

I’ve sold to mpb and have also bought from the company. Satisfied with each transaction.
