Hey Ticboy!

When I got into photography, it was so long ago my 35mm Canon AE-1 SLR was the greatest thing going. To be honest, it didn't hold my interest and I eventually sold all my high dollar stuff and stuck with little point & shoot cameras from there on out.

BUT ... at these estate sales, I still get excited when I find that old stuff. I've scarfed up some real losers as my brain is stuck in the 70's and I remember how expensive that crap was back in the day. Problem is, I compare that to when I paid close to $6000 for my first computer back in '95. Of course some of it was all the accessories needed to get set up, but I paid through the nose for that top of the line 66MHz processor, eight megabytes of RAM and a 320-megabyte hard drive PC that I thought was the cat's meow! 'Course it's worth about 35-cents today! :(

Anyway, the reason I ask, I have a sale coming up and the guy was supposed to have been an amateur photograher (hobbiest) and judging from the pics I've seen, he was into landscapes. I have pics of a few of his cameras, but heck, I have no clue if there's any money there. I know there's very little to go on here, but figured I'd throw it out here to see what you think. Anything at all worth getting excited about here.

That's pretty low end stuff from what I can see. Unless the "ebay math" tells you people would buy it for more than you paid for it :) It looks pretty beat up, too.

Like I said, I used to fall for this crap in my early days of estate sales and usually break even after waiting forever for a sale. I just didn't know about the lens' and who knows what sort of accessories are lying around, but I was kinda hoping you'd say persactly what you said. Thanks for saving me from the grief! I ain't gonna get excited about it. ;)
