Re: Canon XF300 - as new
 

It is now a year old camera, that can be bought new - today- for € 4550. That amounts to £ 3924 on today's exchange rate. So, whichever way you turn it, you are still over asking. I can't imagine anyone paying a premium of around £ 200 for a one year old used camera with very limited warranty (due to its age) over a new one.

You may be lucky to get something like £ 3000 IMO and that might even be a stretch.

Re: Canon XF300 - as new
 

Over here in the UK it seems to be selling for £5500 to very near £6000, mostly nearer the £6000 end. That's nearing a 40% saving on the high end estimate which I would have though is reasonable.

I'm not saying you are wrong though Harm. I am still at the point where work has all but dried up and the camera represents a large investment that I am not sure I can justify much though I loath having to sell it. The lack of portability is a massive reason for it's lack of use. My tripod alone weighs 10kgs (but is a good/stable one)!

Re: Canon XF300 - as new
 

I think Andy may be a victim of UK taxing policy and exchange rates in this argument. Remember that Sterling is relatively weak, and we also have 20% VAT (sales tax) added to all our equipment, though businesses can normally claim VAT back.

Reputable UK dealers' asking prices for this camera are, including VAT

£5334 - Creative Video (CVP) (£4445 ex-VAT)
£5334 - ProAV (£4445 ex-VAT)
£5394 - Prestons (£4495 ex-VAT)

These are what I would term the "big 3" of UK video equipment.

In addition:
£5998 - Jigsaw: (£4999 ex-VAT) (Jigsaw are always at the top end of prices)
£5879 - Warehouse Express (they aren't really a Pro video supplier primarily)
Calument are similar in price.

If you search on Google Shopping, for example, you seem to be able to get the camera for £4100 approx. But closer scrutiny reveals this is from Hong Kong, with no UK/EU warranty I'm sure, and you're going to get screwed with import taxes and VAT on top of that, so it's not a valid comparison.

It's also not valid to compare it to B&H's list price, for example. B&H are great; but by the time I pay shipping, handling, excise and VAT, it costs at least the same as the UK, if not more, and it won't have a UK/EU warranty. I use B&H for equipment I just can't find in the UK.

I'm not sure about mainland-EU dealers, I don't know enough about how those taxes work. Harm, you won't find the camera for £3924 including VAT (even ex-VAT) at any mainstream UK dealer).

If this is a private sale, I presume it's not VAT exempt, which is why Andy is using the UK list price.

I can't buy a UK-sourced, brand new XF300, including proper warranty, from a reputable dealer, including VAT for less than £5300.

Example; my Sony NX70 camera is £2550 in the UK. It is $2800 in the USA. Exchange rates would suggest under £1800 if I bought the camera outside the UK, but it's just not that simple. We just do get screwed in the UK on purchases like this. Until you live here, you don't know how bad it can be!

For £5500 new, £4000 is probably not too bad used. My own personal, painful experience is that people tend not to get interested in used gear until it's half the price of the new item, which means somewhere in the upper £3000s for this model. Which is as depressing as hell!

Andy, given how long you have had this for sale, it does look as if either there's no interest in the camera, or it's too expensive.

Re: Canon XF300 - as new
 

Mike is right we do seem to pay top prices over here in the UK. I am not VAT registered yet so sadly I had to fork out the full amount.


I enquired at CVP for a quote for buying it from me and they said they would give me around £3000. If it really is worth only that much it leaves me in a very difficult position. To sell would be a massive loss, to keep it and only need to use it occasionally maybe seems equally silly. I have an XF100 and Canon 1DmkIV DSLR so the XF300 is not my only video camera BUT it's 18x zoom is very useful for aviation shooting compared to the XF100's 10x zoom. Other than that I use the XF100 9 times out of ten.

$1800, and you can choose either the mic or the bag to go with it.

Re: Canon XF300 - as new
 

Andy & Mike,

The prices I mentioned are excluding VAT. The problem is that most buyers for this kind of camera are businesses or at least capable of getting the VAT back. I you had to pay the VAT yourself and could not deduct that at the moment of purchase, that makes the write-off even bigger.

When you sell the camera as a private person, you can not specify the VAT separately on the invoice and thus the buyer cannot deduct it. That effectively limits your market significantly, especially in these times.

Nevertheless, the offer you got for £ 3000 seems very reasonable to me, in fact it was the figure I mentioned earlier.

When I bought my XF300, I had to pay € 75 for transport and insurance on top of the buying price, and of course the VAT, but I could deduct that, so that is not an extra cost. In the prices I gave yesterday, the total cost would be, excluding VAT, less than £ 4000 including transport and shipping for the new camera, coming from the UK or NZ.

Re: PAG Freelancer Charger + 2x L95 batts FOR SALE
 

I put them on to charge yesterday and the batteries both appear dead. Odd because I've been keeping an eye on them - charging them every so often and I charged them quite recently. I'll ask PAG and post back here if I get them sorted out.

Sony PMW-350K
 

I am selling my like-new PMW-350K with 4 hours on the meter, along with a Zacuto Zephr base-plate and quick release, Petrol Dr. Decca carry case and Anton Bauer Gold Mount. The camera is in pristine—like the day it came out of the box—condition and has never the left the confines of my home. Due to an ever worsening spine injury, I can no longer envision using a shoulder mounted camera. While I hate to part with this gem, it seems unreasonable to allow it to sit unused in a closet.

Original box, packaging and manuals will be supplied as well.

Asking $16,500.00 or best offer.
If the camera is to be shipped, buyer pays shipping and insurance.

$1,500 for the camera

Pelican 1560 case
 

Pelican 1560 case with foam insert ... in very good condition, only a few light scuff marks. I used this super-tough, watertight case to transport two FX1's and various sound equipment, as shown in the picture.

The original case came with "pick n pluck" foam inserts that you use to customize the interior. On the top lid insert, I had to tear off a little of the padding so that the FX1's fit in -- you can see this in the photo.

Regarding the foam inserts on the bottom part of the case that I removed, I saved them, and put them back in as shown in the later photo. (Or you can buy all-new foam inserts, they are about $50 on ebay and B&H.)

Also including a combination lock. Will ship to you in the original box.

Asking $60 plus shipping. (according to USPS website, it is about $25 to ship parcel post).

Let me know if you have any questions. thanks for looking.

Re: Pelican 1560 case

Impact camcorder bag
 

This is the Impact DVC-777 camcorder bag, in excellent condition. Comes with several velcro dividers, so you can customize the interior.

I used this bag to carry a Sony FX1, which is did well, along with a few other odds and ends (tapes, mics, etc.)

New it went for $85, will sell for $45 plus shipping which we can calculate based on your location.

Thanks for looking,

Dave
