fair price for 15X70 Oberwerks?
      #2174954 - 02/07/08 04:05 PM

Hi all, I am going to be selling off my two year old 15X70 Oberkwerks. They are in decent shape and I was wondering what would be a fair price for them? they give great daytime and decent night views. I am replacing them with a pair of new Ultra 70mms.

advertise them at the price you want. the market will tell you if you have named a good price.

IMO, including all shipping and fees in your price eliminates an unknown from the buyer and makes pricing more attractive.

Prices without shipping range from 50% to 75% of new. Obviously one will cause a sale a lot quicker than the other. I can say this, I've never (maybe I should say seldom) paid 75% for any used product, but I see others do. Of course there are exceptions. Brand new products command a higher price.

Cool! thanks Ed,
I was thinking of selling them for around 50% of new before I posted so I have a price in mind now.
