Faulty cameras for sale?

[Pietrach]

Hi

I was thinking if any of you know any place that sells faulty dslrs.
Sensor on my pentax is dying and I know someone who could replace it for me cheaply, but I cannot find used but working sensor:/

Thanks

Your best bet is to try e.bay

After a quick search on eBay, it seems that the only makes with replacement sensors available are Canon and Nikon. I suppose it will always be harder to find parts (especially second hand) from a more niche product like the Pentax DSLR's.

A search for the UK distributor of Pentax might be the only way to source spares, and perhaps a wanted ad on all the photography sites you visit.

You could try Asahi Photo
