Boy, Helen. You are everywhere!!! Believe me folks. Helen is a very helpful person. The first time i saw your name was on FM.com when you helped an Australian's problem of how to ship an epson 3880 to Australia! Any problem with Adorama, just call or email her directly!!!

I have had no problem with Adorama in dealing with high or low price items. However, Amazon has a very good system where they will advetise and find clients for your used equipment. You do not need to ship the equipment to Amazon; once sold, you will receive a prepaid shipping lavel to the person who bought it and Amazon will send you a check (less a small percentage) for the price you specified. I have used their system, but it only works with items that Amazon normally handles (cameras, lenses, etc.)
I have sold lots on eBay. Most of the time you can list for nothing. You can set the minimum bid. All you have to lose is the time spent listing it. You may want to look and see what you are selling sales for. - Dave
Why not sell on Amazon? You'll get a much wider audiance.

They will offer you a whole sale price. About $150.00if you are lucky

I have dealt with Adorama twice on trade-ins. I one case I got what I expected, and in the second case I got MORE than I expected.
I've been dealing with Adorama for the better part of forty years, and have never had occasion to be unhappy with them. Others might not agree, but this is my personal experience.

Adorama certainly is a reputable dealer. However, no camera company will pay you an amount equal to what you might get on eBay or Craig's List. A dealer just cannot do that and make money.
I went thru every listing on Adorma for used Canons and believe me, there were absolutly NO Bargins there....
Thank you, but I'll stick with Ebay....

Craig's List may have moved your stuff in hours instead of weeks.
Don't bother with Adorama....what they offer to buy equipment for is a joke. Yes shipping is free both ways but try Craigslist. Or just give it away which is what you will be doing with Adorama.
Such great feeback from so many of you; thank you so much!
I've copied your comments over to Mark at Adorama TV, to the used department and to the head of Customer Service; I know that they'll all be delighted to share your kind words with their respective team members.
