I have a couple of lenses I want to sell but it appears they have dropped in value lately. I'm looking for prices I should ask so they sell quickly but I want it to be a fair price. Appreciate your input. Assume these are in like new condition.

- Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM
- Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L Mk I
- Canon EF 200mm f/2.8 L Mk II USM
- Canon EF 70-300mm f/4.0-5.6L IS USM

Terry,

Thanks for the db. Funny thing is that my lens sales have all been priced appropriately given that. And yes, I always take eBay pices int account when I post things.

I have t assume then that there is just not that demand for what what I've got for sale.

It might be where you're selling them. I've had my best luck in selling lenses on Amazon.

Also check the prices for the used lenses at KEH and Adorama's used department if they have stock as another reference point.

Thanks, I took a look. It's a great reference and it shows that I'm pricing fairly.

fair price won't always move an item quickly. if you really want to know what they are worth list them on ebay starting at $.99 each. in a week you'll have your answer. good luck.
