35K off retail for a used camera...come on.
My offer still stands. I'm in Busan, though. |
If the OP is being honest the camera is like new and has a bunch of stuff with it. Even if it weren't for what I'm about to say, 35k off the lowest price in Korea and throwing in 35k (could be more like 50k if it's a nicer case or nicer charger) of extras is quite reasonable.
Now, if you take into account the fact that this camera was already the best value in its class and on top of that had a big price drop recently you'll see what I'm saying.
Just in case that's not clear enough, let me give you an example. Market value for used items goes by actual worth, not by comparing to retail prices. Say two guys are selling almost new cameras that they got for 150 and 100. The guy who paid 100 actually has a slightly superior camera. When they sell it to you the guy who paid 100 is going to ask 80 bucks and the guy who paid 150 will have to offer 75 if he wants to compete.
Bottom line: Because this model is undervalued in the retail market the used price should be a lot closer to the retail price than it would be for most products. Savvy? |
