camera trading/exchanging

Hi,

I was just thinking would it be possible to trade my mint T2I ''Griped'' and my 70-200 2.8 L non is and 100mm 2.8L with a 5DII or would I be asking for too much.

Both lenses have only been used a couple of times for personal purposes.

probably get a better feel by putting it up in the For sale section.

Or sale them separately as I find it hard to trade the whole package sometimes.

Though to answer your question I think it is a fair trade...the problem is the people who have a 5Dmkii probably have the type of glass you are bundling...perhaps even the later versions.

You might have more luck selling separate.

I think you could sell all that on ebay and have enough money for a 5D Mk2.

Thanks for your input guys

I think I might put them up on ebay.

Why not try putting them up here in the sell forum? Mention what you are up to, you never know if someone maybe looking to move away from a 5d2.

At the very least, you'd be saving the % that feeBay would be keeping and hopefully only paying the ~3% Paypal fee.. more $ to put towards that 5Dii

I don't know. A T2i + grip is maybe worth about $550-600 (little bit more if OEM grip). The 70-200 NIS is maybe worth $850-1000. So you're looking at somewhere between $1400-1600. That won't be enough cash to buy both. You'll have almost enough for a 5D2 depending on the condition. I don't think I've ever seen one listed for less than $1700. You'll have enough for the 100 2.8L.

EDIT: OOPS! Must be too tired. The 100 2.8L Macro should get somewhere around $850-900. So you'll definitely have enough for the 5d2. I say just sell everything separately and purchase from Canada for just under $2000.

Worth the deal just about, but I doubt anyone would go for it from a 5D2 to a T2I ... just sell em and get the cash

I would list them for sale individually and then purchase the 5D separately.

The chances of finding someone who had a 5D-II for sale, and who wanted those exact 3 items you have are probably very close to nil. Even finding a buyer who was looking for those exact same 3 items is pretty small.
