Hey guys--I'm looking to sell my DVX100 but am having a tough time determining how much it's worth. It's in excellent shape, have had it since June, only used Panny MQ tapes, and has approx. 280 hours on heads. Any ideas? I searched ebay for listings but couldn't find ANY used DVX100's for sale--all new ones. Any thoughts? THanks!

Hey Peter, I saw a few used ones myself and they were going from $2500 to $2800 on average, depending on usage.

New ones on eBay are going for $2995 so you have to keep that in mind to be competitive. Many also include a few extras like bags or tapes. For an AG-DVX100 with 280 hours on the heads I would spend up to $2600, maybe $2700 if the extras were good. These are the most optimistic prices I would agree to but realistically if you can buy a new one for a few hundred more, and what with the AG-DVX100A out and about, its a tough sell. Maybe sell it for $2500?

got rid of mine for 2500 plus nice petrol bag and the free crap it came with (crappy tapes and filters). i wouldn't try and to sell it on ebay or the dv forums for more, because all these ppl know about the 100a and aren't gonna spend more than 2500 on a 100. but if you try craigslist or any other area where the ppl that go there aren't so up to date you could probably get around 2800 or so.

Hey guys--Thanks for the great info. I'll probably shoot for around 2600 or so. Thanks again!

Peter, find out how much a new one costs, B&H price, then knock off 1/3. But do it quick, because the new A's are coming, and that will lower the value of the DVX100.
