Second hand price for a Hasselblad CF 60mm 3.5 ?

[williamw]

Hi,

 

I'ma about to buy a second hand Hasselblad CF 60mm 3.5 lens which is in very good

condition and lens hood is included.

However I'm not an expert on the price for this item and would therefore appreciate some

advise. The seller is asking for approx EUR 900/ USD 1.100.

 

Many thanks

Wilhelm

Have a look at the Hasselblad lens price listings at KEH - they should act as a reasonable guide:<p>

William,<br><br>I think it's a bit on the high side.<br>I've seen in very good condition offered and selling (in shops, and on that big online auction site) for about Euro 700 - 750. In slightly lesser, but still good condition, they go for about Euro 500.

$700-800 is a typical price on the western side of the Atlantic. I recall paying about $700 with the hood.

Use Ebay completed items as a guide. I think EUR 900 is too high!

Thanks to all for the advice!

too expensive. should run $700-800(US)top for a good example. These are much less coveted than the 50mm, which routinely run circa $800 for good examples.

I got a like new one from ebay for a little more than 600 Euros recently. I was a little lucky, I guess.

Ulrik,<br><br>Exactly right, i would say. ;-)<br><br>Paul,<br><br>I hate to dissent again, but the 50 mm lenses are as common as sand on a sandy beach. ;-) As a result, they usually (though not always) go for a good deal less than 60 mm lenses.
