The crappy deal you invariably get on trade-ins is one reason e_ay has been so successful...

The Coolpix 885 I bought from Nikon for $189 as a refurb is still worth $55. Not too shabby.

Mine was 'No Trade In Value'.

Looks like a quick rule of thumb would be to reduce the price you paid for your camera by ~75%.

It's Sunday morning and I'm gonna have a few stiff drinks....

Rule of a second hand shop:

If you dont know what it is, or it doesnt look expensive, offer them a fiver.
If you know what it is and it's worth over £100, offer them a fiver.
Failing the above, research the current new price, and offer 1/10 to 1/3 the new value, depending on condition/customer.

Or, donate it to a school, value it at the highest price you can find at a commercial camera store (make a screen print for the IRS) and then deduct it as a charitable donation. Most people would get about ~25 to 30% of the price back. Of course, this only works if you have a job. 😎
