Rolleiflex 2.8F Selling Guide
When selling your Rolleiflex 2.8F condition matters most. Dealers grade your Rolleiflex 2.8F on its overall cosmetic condition, then check that everything functions correctly: shutter, autofocus, screen, viewfinder and buttons. Most dealers also take the shutter/hour count into consideration, so even if your camera looks in perfect condition, a high shutter count may mean it falls under 'Well used' or 'Heavily used' condition. Any damage, marks or faults should be taken into account when choosing the condition you grade your device.
Most dealers mainly care about the essential Rolleiflex accessories that make the Rolleiflex 2.8F ready to resell, such as the battery and charger. If these are missing and you did not say so, your quote may be revised after inspection. The original box and paperwork can add to an offer but are rarely essential.
Released in 1960, the Rolleiflex 2.8F has been on the market for around 66 years. As an item gets older it typically loses value each year, so if it is sitting unused, now is usually the best time to sell. Comparing several quotes matters even more for older kit, as some dealers specialise in it, and consequently pay much more than mainstream dealers.
A few minutes of preparation before you send your Rolleiflex 2.8F helps avoid a revised offer after inspection.
- Optional: charge the battery so the dealer can test it straight away, which can mean faster payment
- Photograph your camera from every side before sending, as proof of its condition
- Remove memory cards and reset the camera to factory settings
- Check the shutter count if your camera shows it
- Include the battery and charger
- Fit the body cap and pack any straps, manuals and the original box
- Take marks, faults or sensor dust into account when telling a dealer it's condition.
