HERE’S WHAT I
SHOULD BE ASKING, BASED ON LIKELY PRICING ON THE “OPEN MARKET”:
BODY (with four batteries): $1,700.00
GRIP (with two batteries): $300.00
LENS: $800.00
BATTERIES: (worth about $100 each) $600.00

TOTAL: $3,400.00

GABRIOLA/NANAIMO PRICE: FOR THE WORKS:
I’LL ACCEPT: $2,500.00

To put that price in perspective: here’s what I found on a web search, for comparative pricing:
Sony FE4 24-70 lens:

  • new price at Henrys is $1,099
  • Kijiji “mint condition” price in Toronto is $900
  • Amazon.ca price is $898 new, or $829 “renewed”
The camera:
  1. 1. $2,045: from Kijiji listing in St Catharine’s: Camera body in “near mint” condition, with four batteries and two chargers
  2. 2. $1,700: from Kijiji listing in Scarborough: Camera body in “amazing” condition
  3. 3. $2,000: Brantford: Kijiji listing: “very low shutter count”, with two batteries and a charger
  4. 4. $1,550: Calgary Kijiji: “barely used, very good condition”, two chargers and three batteries
  5. 5. Ebay listings for Sony A7Rii as of 2019.06.26:
  • $2,050 or $2,350 (questionable multiple listings): “bundle” – low shutter count –grip, 12mm & 85mm rokinon cine lens, batteries, flash, bag, camera, and grip
  • $1,800: plus RRS L-bracket, four batteries, and dual battery charger
  1. 6. $2,399: Henry’s (“open box”) price for A7RII body (same price at vistek and bestbuy)

Battery grip is worth about $350 used (usual price is $450, currently on sale for $400)

(why am I selling such a great package? I’ve upgraded to a Sony A7R iii)
