Selling to eBay

I read with interest the letter from Mr Eric Beaton, regarding the selling fees from eBay following his sale of a Fujifilm X-Pro 2. He comments that he would rather give away his old equipment to someone who would use it and asks what other readers think. I think if he needs to find a new home for old equipment I’ll happily take it from him! Jocularity aside, I too have been caught out by selling fees so I now sell gear to an online dealer that often advertises and features in your magazine.

I instantly connected with the camera as if I had been born with it.
