Sell cameras and lenses for cash in Orange County

Orange County households tend to have a lot of gear in garages and storage: wedding and event kits, enthusiast mirrorless bodies, and older film cameras from a previous generation. Much of it sits idle after a move or an upgrade.

We visit Irvine, Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Anaheim, Mission Viejo, Laguna Beach, Dana Point, and nearby cities. Text photos first. If it looks like a fit, we come to you and look at the whole bag.

Short answer: text photos of your cameras to (858) 247-2017. If it looks like a fit, we come to you in Orange County, look at everything in person, and pay cash before leaving.

Common camera situations in Orange County

  • A hobbyist or part time event photographer retiring an older DSLR kit with several lenses
  • A downsizing couple in Newport Beach or Laguna Beach with a closet of film cameras
  • An estate cleanout in Fullerton or Orange where the camera bag turned up in a storage box

What to text us for cameras

  • A photo of each body and each lens, with the front glass visible
  • Any extras, such as flashes, battery grips, filters, and tripods
  • Whether the gear was stored in a garage or storage unit, since humidity can affect lenses

What affects the value of cameras

  • Brand and model, and whether it is a sought after film body or lens
  • Working condition, including shutter, meter, and light seals on film cameras
  • Lens condition: haze, fungus, scratches, and sticky aperture blades
  • Included accessories such as flashes, bags, straps, and chargers
  • Complete kits with original boxes

Broken or parts only cameras and very common point and shoot models are usually only worth a small offer or not a fit.

We do not quote prices from a single photo. Final offers come after we look at the items in person.

Often yes, especially complete kits with lenses and accessories. Newer and popular models are the best fit. Text photos and the model names.

Yes. Both are regular stops across Orange County. Text first so we can confirm the gear is worth a visit.
