p.1 #1 · 5D classic pricing

Quick question. What would you guys value a 5D classic (8-9K clicks) w/ Canon Grip showing only minor scratches to the hotshoe? Comes with everything in the box too. I was approached to do a trade for my 100-400 (that I'm selling) by someone selling their 5D and will include cash.

Look in the B&S? There's 1 a day, at least.

I did and found major differences in the pricing. Wanted some opinion in an average price point.

I paid $950 shipped and PP'd for one with under 3k on the shutter, no grip, spare battery and minor hot shoe brassing. Included box and manuals. OPerates flawlessly and is in otherwise excellent condition.

Hope that helps.

$1000 with (Canon, not aftermarket) grip, as described. If the party throws in $200-300, you would have a good deal there.

I've seen 5D body's in decent shape selling for $600-$700 locally. I seriously think anything in the $900 price range is excessive. Gotta think once that 5D Mark III comes out you should expect to be seeing them in $400-$700 range. Then we'll see the 5D Mark II selling in the 1200-1400 range.

I seen them go for $700 without grip. I would not value the grip more than $100 so a system with grip would go for $800 max.

I'd say $850-$1000. At least those are the prices I've been seeing around lately since I've been looking to buy one.

In Seattle on CL, I have been seeing them go for around $900 (tend to look at this 1-3 times a day over the last 6 months). Any priced below that seem to be gone fast. Had to say what people are actually payIng though.

Look at completed auctions on ebay then subtract 10% as people tend to overpay on auctions.

Look at eBay. Don't subtract anything. Remember, sellers on here want you to violate PayPal tos by sending gift payments or by paying an extra 3%.

They vary a bit though and there will never be a "they must sell for 900 across the board".

I personally would not pay a penny more than 800 shipped, and paypalled for a 5d with canon grip.

I sold mine a few months ago for 900 or so shipped / paypalled.

Havent checked recently but I did my research when I sold my 5D this summer. I assume prices have dropped some since, as the 5D MKII has dropped a couple of hundred or so.
All depends on clicks, shape its in, reliability of seller, but I'd say $800-900+

I paid $1100 for mine, bought it off here 2 years ago. I dont know how many clicks it had, but it has worked flawless since then. I have put over 20k on it.

Hell, I've paid about a year and a half ago, 1100 $ on a 5Dc with 381.00 clicks with battery ,charger,neckstrap,front cap.

So probably I got the worse deal on a 5Dc ever (of course, didn't know the no. of clicks but after I had it sent to Canon for checking and for calibration with the 24-70 2.8L )
After finding out that it had 381.000 clicks I 'persuaded' the seller to give me back about 180 $

Sold the body 3 months ago (it surely had over 460.000 clicks) for 820 $

Where I live...people are asking insane prices for used 5Dc , 5D II, not to mention 1D III or 1DII ...

Ones in near-mint (less than 1,000 clicks) go for $1,000 to $1,200.

Prices of the 5D will not drop much when a 5DMk3 comes out.
