RexGig0 Offline Upload & Sell: On

I am still loving my D3s, which I bought, pre-owned, last summer. I also have D700 cameras, also bought pre-owned, in 2014. My wife uses D7000 and Df cameras. My wife and I have handled a demonstrator D500, trying it with various lenses. She noted the similarity to the D300s, issued to her by her employer, that prompted her to become a dedicated Nikon shooter.
She has pronounced the D500 as her next camera acquisition. I am sure I would love a D500, too, but we are waiting a bit, while the beta testing is being done by others. (Actually, the D5 has my attention, but probably not financially possible until late 2017 or 2018, when I retire, so it is the D500 under consideration, for now.)
I seriously doubt my D3s will be going to a new home. I still have my Canon 40D, with which I became a truly serious photographer, my 5D, and my first 7D; by the time they became a bit dated, and superseded by my newer cameras, the amount I would receive by selling them seems too low. Moreover, in good light, these older cameras still perform well, plus, a vehicle crash, or similar event, might damage or destroy my newer gear, so I would want to keep at least one or two of my older cameras.
