Leica IIIc

Out of stock
The Leica IIIc, produced between 1940 and 1951, introduced a die-cast body chassis, making it slightly longer and more rigid than its predecessors. This 35mm LTM rangefinder features a combined viewfinder and rangefinder housing, though they remain separate windows. It offers a shutter speed range from 1/1000s down to 1 second plus B and T.

What Is The Best Place To Sell My Leica IIIc?

Where can I sell my Leica IIIc?

You can sell your Leica IIIc directly to SDS. We give you an instant online quote, send you a free DPD or Royal Mail label to ship it in, and pay you by bank transfer once it's been inspected. No auctions, no buyer disputes, no waiting.

Is it worth selling my Leica IIIc?

If you're not using your Leica IIIc regularly, yes — used camera gear depreciates over time, so the longer you wait, the less it's worth. Selling now means you turn idle kit into cash you can put toward your next body, lens or trip.

Where can I buy a used Leica IIIc?

Right here. Every used Leica IIIc we sell is hand-checked by our team, graded honestly against our published conditions guide, and shipped fast from the UK. All listings show real photos of the actual item you'll receive.

Is a used Leica IIIc reliable?

Every Leica IIIc we sell is inspected, tested and graded before it goes on the site. It also comes with a 1-year SDS warranty (UK only, excluding items graded Faulty) and a 14-day return window if it isn't what you expected.

What condition will my Leica IIIc be graded?

We grade every item against five clearly-defined conditions: Like New, Excellent, Good, Well Used or Faulty. Cosmetic wear, functional issues and what's included are all taken into account. Full criteria are on our Conditions guide page.

How long does it take to get paid for my Leica IIIc?

Once your Leica IIIc arrives and passes inspection (usually within 1–2 working days of receipt), payment is sent straight to your bank account. Most sellers are paid within 24-48 hours of posting their item.

Do you buy a faulty or broken Leica IIIc?

Yes — we buy Leica IIIc units graded Faulty too, though the price will be lower. Be honest about any issues in your quote: it speeds up inspection and avoids revised offers later.

What accessories should I include with my Leica IIIc?

Including the all of original manufactures accessories typically increases what we'll pay for your Leica IIIc. If you are missing any of these no worries, just send what you can and we can adjust your quote once your device arrives.

Does my Leica IIIc purchase come with a warranty?

Yes — every Leica IIIc bought from SDS comes with a 1-year warranty (UK only) except items sold as Faulty. You also get a 14-day return window if you change your mind.
