I've just upgraded my entire kit so I'm looking to get rid of my 40D with BG-E2N, 2 batteries, 1gb CF card and, 420EX flash, and EF 50mm f/1.4 USM.
Unfortunately I live in Korea so all I'm looking for is how much (in USD or GBP) I could sell the lot for? I'd be grateful for any advice or suggestions on pricing.

400 for the body
100 for the grip
100 for the flash
325 for the lens
the card is not a big seller so maybe 5
all in usd so in total rounded down to around 900

Don't you think 325 for the lens is a bit much? You can get them new for 360!

Oddly enough, many ebay purchasers don't know the current retail value of lenses.

$400 for the body??
I sold my 40D with Nifty Fifty + 2Gb CF Card for $900 Cdn :)
$400 USD for a 40D? that's almost half of what it worth [8-)]
Alex, I might be interested in your 420EX, please contact me if you are willing to ship internationally.

Sorry Oren, just got back having sold the lot to a dealer. He claimed the AF in the lens was faulty (I admit I've been having some problems with it) so he knocked off about the equivalent of $100 as that is how much it would cost to fix the lens. Anyway, I got about $1000 for the lot, minus the CF card, which I don't think was a bad price considering.
Oh well... at least now I know to send an email next time since not everybody are like me - checking the forums here 24/7 [:P]

I would look into Keh.com, BHPhotoVide used, Adorama used prices to rate my gear.
