Hey everyone,

Up for sale is my 2010 Canon DSLR Rebel T2i digital camera. Bought it in America a little less than two years ago, and at the time it cost me $1,100 US Dollars + tax.

The camera itself is still in perfect condition, by this I mean there is NOTHING wrong with it at all, it is just as it was when I bought it. It comes with an extra battery (amazing for long outings, it will come in handy a lot), and 2 extra 4 GB memory cards (3 memory cards in total).

In all honesty I have never really used this camera in the way I intended, I have actually hardly used it at all. And in truth I really do not want to sell it. However, the reason I am doing so anyway is because I intend to travel for an extended period of time starting next month, and need any extra money I can get. Which, unfortunately, means that the camera must go.

As it is in perfect condition, and comes with extras, I am asking for 750,000 won, firm price. Maybe that sounds like a lot, but keep in mind that is less than or around $650 American for a near brand new condition DSLR with extras, and also I am taking a $500 dollar loss in the process (please don't try to rip me off, if you know cameras, you know this is a reasonable deal)

Of course you can try before you buy. I live in Jamsil, in Seoul, which is sort of near Gangnam. Just send a PM or post if you are interested and include your contact details, and we can pick a place to meet.

If you have any questions feel free to ask! And hopefully someone out there can give this camera a good home, and the use it deserves.

Are you including a lens in your sale or just the body?

The body for the 550D is on Gmarket for 500,000.

I'd have thought an extended trip would be reason enough to buy a good camera, especially something lighter, not sell one ?

Anyway, that's a very good camera at a reasonable price. Does it come with some glass? If so then great, if not then it's a tiny bit dear.

600,000 seems a bit cheap, is there something wrong with that Camera?

Yes, it comes with a lens and all of the stuff it came with. I even have a camera case for it that I use, which you can have that works great. Forgot to mention that.

And about the trip, you're right, but to be honest I think it is one of the lighter DSLR's? But even so it is sort of heavy, at least to me. I traveled with it before coming to Korea in both Australia and Japan, and didn't use it very much at all for that reason. I found myself using my small snap and shoot a lot more to capture memories, rather than bringing the DSLR everywhere.

If you are into photography it would be perfect I think, and worth the extra weight.

again, comes with:

All original accessories (lens, cables, strap, etc.)
Extra back up battery
3 4GB HD memory cards
DSLR camera case for travel

camera is in near brand new condition, and of course you can test it out for yourself before you buy, no worries at all

The price you paid has nothing to do with what it's worth today. And at 700,000 won, you're pretty much asking for what it costs to buy new today.

So your price is wayyy out

And you aren't taking a loss, its called depreciation.

to be fair, the 550D linked is only the body. but yes, the op is one of those people who doesn't seem to grasp depreciation and wants way more than his unit is worth.
