Have a bunch of broken L series lenses + 5dMKII... What does one do?
- Thread starter tiltshift
- Start date
Personally, I'd cry...and then call my insurer. I'd get new gear and they'd get the broken stuff.
Are those broken beyound repair? If so, I think you'd need to disclose it on your ebay ad and then you are less likely to sell it at a good price. If not, wouldn't these items be worth repairing?

Describe broken.
Slightly damaged fully functional: excellent value
Slightly damaged requires repair: might want to fix before selling
Moderately damaged: will sell for more than you think
Severely damaged beyond repair: coffee mugs!

Dear friend Mr. Mackguyver.
I just think ( I might be wrong), Mr. tiltshift is a super smart guy, He just put all his old equipment, include Canon Flashes 550 ex, 5809 EX and 580 EX II in the trash bag and drop from the balcony of his home---And Say to his wife ( Yes I will do too) , Honey, Sorry, I try to shoot the beautiful blue bird with my dear 1DX and 600 mm Lens, During Shooting, The Crow / Big Black bird start to get jealous, and start to attach me---Yes my hand just accidentally push the Old equipment and fall to the concrete drive way---Yes, That is the Bad New---But, my dear wife, The Good New that, all that old equipment are Junks. Now is a great time to upgrade to MK II, that will make me feel like " The real PRO/ Professional Photographer"----PLUS, The Great new that, I already order all new MK II and MK III equipment last week---That way, I will not miss the World cup soccer, which I will shoot from our 80 Inch 3D LED TV. monitor.
Just Kidding.
Have a great weekend, Sir.

Just curious to know that if you broke them all at one time in an accident or you are a collector of cheap broken stuff and found them beyond repair or are just too costly to do so.
If they are of no use to you, you may post them for sale - ebay or locally with full disclosure of the conditions of course.

That's a risky move, Mr Surapon. Might give the wife enough reason to upgrade the husband

You guys are too funny. I was thinking he did it base jumping, skydiving, or maybe something really dangerous like putting his gear in a checked bag at the airport

I would post them on eBay indicating in condition "for parts only" and see how much I can get.tiltshift said:

Another vote for eBay, broken Canon gear, particularly lenses, often fetch crazy money on there.
