I honestly don't know how to ask this without being scoffed at. I'm new here, so please forgive any newbieness or simple weirdness that I may or may not present:
I have access to an XL-2. But I want to use an XL H1 for a 5 to 6 day shoot. Possibly more. Maybe 7-10 days (the extra days would be used for filler or stock, personally)...
But my idea was that I would purchase an XL H1, stock, at its MSRP of about $9,000. I'd keep it for about a month, maybe two (at max), and then I would sell it (as I don't need it AFTER the feature I'm working on)...
I personally pamper and baby my electronics, but you certainly can't take ones word for it.
I've been having trouble finding places to rent it from (none, so far-- Called many places in L.A.)-- I am in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I can either rent (if I can find a place) or buy it and sell it. BUT is there even a market out there: IS IT POSSIBLE to find someone who would want to buy a 1-2 month used XL H1? Granted, I am willing to sell at a loss... Any ideas?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
