  Q. Reasonable price?
Daniel Guerin
Asked by Daniel Guerin    (K=7961) on 3/8/2005 
I'm looking to get into large format and, by chance, have been offered what could turn out to be quite a bargain. I need the help of someone who knows about this equipment to decide if it is or not please. The seller has basically said 'name your price', roughly, what would you estimated a reasonable price range in total for the following list? All used equipment but in near perfect condition.

Sinar F2
Sinar monorail extension
Sinar Fresnel Lens
Sinar Binocular reflex magnifier
Sinar Binocular light hood
Horseman wide angle bag bellows
Portable dark slide changing bag
17x (maybe more) Fidelity Elite 5x4 dark slides
2x 5x4 Polaroid backs
Schnieder 210mm f5.6 Apo/Symmar Lens + Lensboard
Schnieder 150mm f5.6 Apo/Symmar Lens + Lensboard
Nikkor 75mm f4.5 SW lens + Lensboard

Quite possibly more 'bits and pieces' thrown in too.

Now, I've been told to name my price but the seller did indicate that he would certainly be happy to accept somewhere around £1500 for the whole lot. Would this be an absolute bargain, reasonable or totally unreasonable?

Thanks for your time, I hope you are able to advise.

Dan.

Totally unreasonable for the seller...the lenses alone are worth more and this is a great camera. Buy it!

Thanks for your reply. I've since been told I can have it for £1200, so I'm going to pick it up later today.

Thanks again.

Daniel, do you understand the differences between a field camera and a monorail?

Yes I do, and I've done a great deal of research since first posting this thread.
