Question

Can anyone give me an idea as to value of a Canon AE-1 SLR with 50mm lense?

Also 28-70mm Tokina macro lense?

And 70-200mm Tokina macro lense?

And flash unit for AE-1?

Been offered the lot, will be interested if it's worth selling on. Had a look on ebay, but not really a lot of good for price until item is sold, so I thought I'd ask here

Thanks
James

This is as close as I can get....

I have an A1 in pretty good condition with a Canon 35-70 lens. I recently bought an EOS 30 and my local camera shop offered me £150 for the A1 as a straight sale (I hadn't bought the EOS there).

I assume the AE-1 is worth a bit less but the extra lenses would probably make up the gap and then some. Hope this helps.

You can always search eBay for completed auctions - it's under the advanced search options. You could also try calling Ffordes, Mifsuds, Jonathan Harris, Park Cameras or even Jessops to ask them for a guide to its trade-in value.

Thanks guys, he wanted £100 for the lot, thought it might be cheap, but looks like the right money.
