Hi All & Happy New Year!!

I was wondering if anyone here has ever sold or traded their equipment in to any of the various online stores, Adorama, B&H, Abes or even received quotes from them. If so, which did you find give the best prices on used gear?

I have been trying to sell a few items lately and have really gotten some insane offers on FM. Some as low as 50% of what I paid just a few months ago! I would rather keep the items than sell for that low of a price when I still need to deduct shipping and insurance from that low offer. Plus, I am sure many people are near broke after the holidays which makes it tough to sell right now.

I am debating whether to just pull the ads for a few months or if it would be better to sell to a store. If I would get more out of it value wise if I sell them say an $800 item and purchase something smaller and get partial cash rather than all cash in return.

Thoughts?
