How much for my Rollei 35TE?

[Jamie123]

I really hate to open another thread about pricing but searching eBay I really haven't found much info on what I could expect my camera to sell for.

I have a black Rollei 35TE (made in Singapore) including battery adapter, UV-filter and rubber hood. How much can I reasonably price this for? Whene would be the best place to sell it? I generally prefer to sell on forums at a fixed price instead of going the auction route.

Thanks!

McKeown's lists the 35TE, Black or Chrome as $200-250. Hope this helps.

If it's in perfect cosmetics condition and without the least functional issue, $125 including worldwide insured shipping would sell it within a reasonable delay on a photo forum classifieds page.

There are now zillions of Rollei 35 cameras for sale around, and the 35 TE isn't the most attractive (most advanced light meter version ever built in a Rollei 35, but with a backup to the 40/3.5 lens at the same time, which was a bit strange from them). People would rather go for a 35 SE or an early "Germany" 35 if for the original Carl Zeiss Tessar.

The Rollei 35 w/ the rare S-Xenar Schneider lens might be the best deal as for a seller's point of view nowadays.

McKeown's prices are over the top. Plus, they don't count the digital parameter in.

It's in perfect working condition and reasonably good cosmetic condition (apart from the lever which is missing some paint). I didn't pay all that much for it but I guess if they sell for less than $100 I might aswell keep it.

Are there any Rollei specific forums or other places where Rollei 35's are popular?
