Do you buy camera gear in North County San Diego?

Yes. We are based in Oceanside, so Oceanside, Carlsbad, Vista, San Marcos, Escondido, and Encinitas are the closest stops. We also visit San Diego proper and the South Bay.

Can I sell just one lens or a single camera?

Yes, if it is a model with real collector or user demand. Text a photo and the model name and we will tell you honestly whether it is worth a visit.

What if I inherited camera gear and know nothing about it?

That is common. Photograph everything together, including the cases and any manuals, and we will go through it with you and explain what is what.
