You could definitely get $3300-$3400.. basically it's the type of used equipment that a buyer hopes for.. almost brand new, still under warranty, but at a nice discount.. good luck!

just beware of all the scammers on craigslist wanting you to ship it to tim-buck-too or nigeria or polland and wish to pay by paypal...   I'm sure there is a honest guy wanting to surprise his fiancee living in nigeria and happens to be away for his job but he isn't getting my business.  =)

I have paypal account. I only use it when selling stuff on ebay. For seller protection...ship within US and buyer shipping address must be confirmed with Paypal. Paypal charges 2.9% for each transaction. >:( >:( :(

Again... Craiglist meet face to face in public-safe-place(bank, starbuck etc...). Bring a friend with you. I like to meet at the bank, so I can verify and deposit cash on spot.

BIG PLUS about selling stuff on CL is you don't have to worry buyer returns your item and asks for cash back  ;D ;D

nebugeater:
I agree on looking at CL first as an option to sell but sometimes EB is a better option.  I say this since you want to do a CL sale face to face and with cash and in some geographic areas your potential buyer pool for an item like this might be so small it is hard to sell or sell at the price it is worth.  To open up your market Ebay can be good even with the fees

Longtime ebayer and I don't sell any high-dollar items on there anymore...tons of different scams and ebay is now set up more to protect the buyer than the seller...there's ebay classifieds which is like craigslist (local) and you get to put around nine photos on...craigslist is probably still the best as long as used with common sense to protect oneself...I recently sold my 7D on CL and said I wouldn't release the camera until a check (cashier's etc. ...obviously I wouldn't with a personal check) clears my bank...the guy bought cash...as any serious buyer is fully capable of... :)

I sell a ton of high end camera equipment on ebay.  My ebay sales are guaranteed, and ebay / paypal do a excellent job at weeding out scammers.  They need to, because it costs them, not me if something goes wrong.  I know the selling rules to get seller protection, but its been 7 years since a scam slipped thru, and ebay not only paid me the full amount of the sale, but they cancelled the sale and refunded my seller fees, so I got more than the selling price.
