Good morning,
Due to advancing years and deteriorating vision, but mostly because everyone has a superb camera attached to their mobile phone, although they might not know how to use it properly, I am looking to dispose of my equipment. I am looking for a suitable auctioneer who specialises in photographic equipment, rather than one that chucks everything in a number of cardboard boxes and sells as a job lot.
Any suggestions please?
Regards Alistair

I'm a member of the Canon Group on Facebook, its not a bad place at all. There are some very knowledgable people on there (I'm not one of them) including several 'pros'. Its also a decent place to buy and sell good quality equipment and realistic prices.
If you're not a Canon user I'm sure there are similar groups for other 'premium' brands too.
Might be worth a visit.

If any of your kit is relatively modern, I can heartily recommend Wex. Very easy and straightforward to deal with plus fair valuations.

As Paul said, also MPB (I have used them quite a bit). Depends on what the equipment is - ffordes photographic for Leica kit in particular, but also others. Mifsuds Photographic are always crying out for used equipment..
Auctioneers: Flints are highly regarded, but again this depends on what you wish to dispose of.

Either Ffordes (www,ffordes.com) or Red Dot Cameras ( www.reddotcameras.co.uk) - will either buy or sell on a commission basis. M film cameras have been increasing in value over the last few years. Better still, buy some film and use it!
