I'm getting ready to sell some Voigtlander / Bessa gear and CV lenses and need info on what price to put on it.
All include the original box, packing, caps and instructions.
Bessa R2 Olive in Mint- condition with Domke strap
Black Mint 35mm f2.5 CV M mount with the hood and caps. This is the current lens.
Black Mint 50mm f1.5 Nokton LTM with hood and caps.
Black Mint 75mm f2.5 LTM with hood and caps.
I've not found a price for the R2 Olive and have found some pricing for the others but respect everyones opinion and would like to know your thoughts.
Thanks for your help!

The best camera is one that still works!
It's tricky with this sort of gear IMO ... I just sold my R4A in the classifieds and went throught the same process. I finished up advertising it for 30% less than replacement value and it sold fairly quickly.
The 1.5 Nokton defies this logic though IMO because it seems to be developing a bit of a cult following due to it's discontinuation.

Thanks Keith.
I've not really been keeping up with gear and didn't know the 50 1.5 had been discontinued. Also I don't think the Olive R2 has been made for a few years either.
I love the camera and lenses but hust have too much gear and am thinking of getting an M9 and want to sell off some of the stuff I rarely use.
I have to add my thoughts on the 50 1.5. It's really a fine lens. It's as close to my 50 asph summilux as I've found. wide open performance is darn close to the Summilux asph and down a stop I can't see any difference and very little wide open.

I think that's why the 50/1.5 is sought after

CV 35/2.5M $275-325
CV50/1.5 - $400-450
CV 75/2.5 - $275-325.
