Pentax K7 Pricing

A.M.92 · 01-21-2011, 07:40 AM

Hello everyone, good day to you all. I have a question to ask. I have a Pentax K7 less then a year old, shutter count is 11282 to be exact. I have all the original Accessories, the box everything that came with it. The camera is in excellent condition, it does have tiny hard to see scratches at the bottom due to using the grip but overall the camera is in great condition. My question is, i am about to start college upcoming fall, and to be honest i do not use the camera as much as i did, and i really need the money, what would be a reasonable price to sell the camera for?

have a look at the postings in the forum and on eBay it should answer the question.

New they seem to range 850-1000 right now since they were officially discontinued so that should give you a read on it as to sell you will have to offer value over new.

I'd wager 650-700. I bought one a couple months ago off the marketplace for 700 with about the same mileage and condition as yours (boxes, papers,etc) and with extended warranty. I'd been looking at the pricing since (to gather if I got a steal or overpaid), and it seems what I got was average market value.

it's what i paid with the kit lens and the warranty from the forum as well but i though pricing may have declined by this point

I paid US$760.00 last fathers day sale from B&H.
If you can fetch $650-700 then good for you.

Oops

Just as I make a guestimate on price a $600 K7 w/ box pops up in the marketplace.
