Bargains Thread

[medwaygreen]

The first of these is the zoom, not nearly as good a lens...

Thanks Chris, I did not notice that and yes you are correct,not as good as the fixed lens.

 

[LonerMatt]

Obviously I only want to fixed lens version - thanks for the links

Voigtlander Vitessa L with never-ready case for £40 for anyone in or around Gillingham;

https://www.gumtree.com/p/non-digital-cameras/voigtlander-vitessa-vintage-camera/1185825477

From the pictures it looks like the leatherette is peeling a bit on the front but that's easily sorted. Quite tempted myself so someone do me a favour and buy it ;0)

 

[stevelmx5]

If anyone lives near Coulsdon this is the best bargain I've seen in a while;

https://www.gumtree.com/p/video-cam...a-600-se-with-flash-including-case/1186454828

Polaroid 600SE £50 ono..

 

[stoo31]

That's amazing have just emailed as I'm only a few miles away!

 

[stevelmx5]

Nice one, hopefully it can go to a good home :0)

 

[stoo31]

Fingers crossed! Thanks for the tip-off will let you know how I get on

Yashica 124G for £50 if anyone can collect from Greenwich :0)

https://www.gumtree.com/p/video-cam...mat-124-g-camera-working-condition/1187183776

 

[stoo31]

I managed to get the polaroid last week and that Yashica is even closer to me so have contacted the seller|

Thanks for the tip-offs - polaroid is clean and barely used and works a treat although was missing the additional viewfinder for the wide lens but can't expect everything!

https://www.gumtree.com/p/non-digital-cameras/lubitel-2-russian-camera/1186907209

Not sure if they're bargains though

 

[Andysnap]

Why are they always bl**dy hundreds of miles away?

Exactly and most sellers won't post (which isn't actually a bad thing for my wallet when I'm actually looking for a LF lens..)

H'mm 110mm lens...that's odd? could be 135mm f2.8

Oh god, I'm going to Bournemouth next weekend.

Oh man, another one...

https://www.gumtree.com/p/non-digit...0-mm-lens-and-back-good-condition-/1190815870

Ohhhh no I don't like it when they're close to me. When they're far away I know there's no chance of getting them, but when they're close I have to find other reasons why I can't buy it. Or can I?

 

[stevelmx5]

Buy it buy it buy it (then post the Linhof to me..) ;0)

I haven't got any free cash at the moment but here's an OM1 with a 55mm 1.2 lens for £120;

https://www.gumtree.com/p/non-digital-cameras/olympus-om-1/1193132395

The lens is easily worth twice that.

Ok, maybe not a "bargain" but might be good if you shoot a LOT of 35mm ;0)

Anyone in Aberdeen with £80 in their pocket can get a load of kit;

https://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/film-camera-collection-inc-processing-equipment/1195340230

From what I can see there's an Epson V500 and Lomo holders, Lomo LCA, Zorki 1, Holga 120, couple of other 35mm cameras, pile of 120/35 film, developing equipment and a pile of books!

Wish I lived in Aberdeen!!

 

[RaglanSurf]

Not sure if this is a bargain, it's not a film I've used much in 35mm and certainly not at all in 5x4
But compared to the price of a lot of large format stuff it seems reasonable, Provia at just under £70 20 sheet box.

Provia is fantastic, like colour Acros when it comes to long exposure.

HUH if the weather was warm I'd use the motorbike as it's only 40 miles from me.

But... Brian, that camera is crazy money, £10, what are you thinking of man?

Yes you are right and have emailed him.....although I already have the lenses except 150mm, but IMO it's a typo for the price.

Even though I already have a Spotmatic, I'd be tempted if it was closer as that's a bargain for the lenses if nothing else.

 

[David_H]

Would it be a typo? The price shown is £10 and then the seller says in the description that it's £10. Fingers crossed that it is £10 as I would have thought that the case alone is worth that IMO.

Well at that price it would have gone by now...the last time I got a bargain off gumtree was when I saw an Epson V750pro for £90, phoned up and the guy was surprised that he had only put the advert in shortly before and I was the first to contact him.

Fingers crossed then Brian?

 

[Techy Guy]

Emailed the seller here too, replied to say it's sold. Lucky buyer!
