Steve,

My inquiry into your camera was a serious one. I have 3 jobs this fall that all require 3 matching cameras, so I need 2 more XL H1s, Vinten tripods, lens controllers, HD monitors, etc. to match the set-up of the one I currently have. I did ask for pictures and would still welcome them. Chris, as far as whether that should be required, let me quote myself from Steve's original sale thread:

______________
"Obviously, it's not so much a picture of the camera that I want/need to see (I own one already), it's the "focus gear" and "custom built mini-rod/shoulder mount base and 15mm rods" in Steve's description that I'd like to be able to visualize.

Although I will say, after buying and selling a lot of gear on the internet, some on this forum, it's always safer for both parties to have seen photos before hand, so no one can say, "Hey, you never mentioned this or that..." about the condition of the item."
______________

I stand by this. I'm looking to drop about 35,000 dollars over the next month or so on used gear. I would be foolish to accept it all "sight-unseen." My business partners would have a cow! I'll be the one putting my money at risk by sending a PayPal transfer for thousands of dollars before getting to see the actual gear. The least the seller can do is supply a few pics so I can see the condition of the item and especially what the add-ons are before I pay for them. I honestly don't think that's unreasonable.

Michael,
Obviously, I am one person at least, who has their eyes open for H1s for sale at a good price. I'm not in a huge rush (yet) so I'm taking my time considering offers. I still have Steve's thread bookmarked as a hot possibility. I have seen several others over the last few weeks on this forum and on another where I am also a member. I bought the one I have now on this forum and will probably buy 2 more sometime soon.

Thanks guys for the responses.

Yes, I completely agree with you Steve. What makes me not so aggressive at this point is the fact that I really like this camera and it is certainly good enough for the feature film I have in mind for it. But I was going over the proposed budget, and after outfitting the camera with the P+S technik mini along with Cooke S4's and shooting uncompressed out, we are suddenly within RED price territory (in rental terms), along with the fact that a friend is getting one too that we can possibly use.

So I'll entertain the thought of selling it if there is really any interest out there. Please let me know Vence, if you'd like to inquire further about the camera.

Fully granted of course. Allow me to suggest that it's safer for both parties to have also spoken by telephone at least once, and if at all possible, to meet in person as well.

Chris,

I couldn't agree more. I definitely always speak on the phone for anything over a few hundred bucks. I would love to be able to meet with the sellers, but being in the mid-west, I don't run into very many people within a decent driving distance. Most of you are out in California or somewhere more metropolitan like NY, Dallas, DC, etc. Although the H1 I currently have, I purchased from a member in Mississsippi, and oddly enough, there is another H1 for sale from a guy named Jad who is also in Mississippi that I am considering.

I just missed buying an XL H1 from a dvxuser.com member in Virgina who let his go for $5000! Unbelievable! The guy who bought it lived in West Virginia and was able to jump in the car and go meet him. Even though it would have been a 2 day trip for me, I definitely considered it.



Michael,

You can definitely email me details about what exactly you might want to sell and how much you need to get out of it. I'd be happy to hear from you.

Chris: I think it's okay to ask for pictures, particularly when something has been customized as mine has (for handholding) - doesn't bother me at all...

I just haven't been able to get it done because a several day shoot turned into a multi-week event (we found a guy who is perfect for the central thread of our film and had to spend time in the LA area following him)...

By the way, I am shooting exclusively on P2 cards, which has been a real experience...

There have been 100 people look, one question, and no offers. Is asking $1,400 that out of line for a GL-2 that is in excellent condition, and that has under 40 hours of use? Having never sold a camcorder before, much less on this forum, I'm not sure what the market is out there. Given what I paid, it's hard to believe it has lost this much value. Would I be better off going the Ebay route?

[Todd McCormick]

PRICE REDUCED: $725

I'll throw in ground shipping too.

Email for more info.

100 views isnt really very many with the number of people on the boards. Things can take weeks to sell, if they sell superfast then you know you have a super-low price or something in high demand.

I think your price is fair if you included a couple of those accessories (like maybe the two filters and the battery). Personally, I'm not looking for a GL2 right now though. I think you'll have a bit of a wait to sell it because of all the new stuff that's out. But that's just my opinion.

eBay will charge fees and if you list it starting this high, you won't get any bids. But, that is always an option of course.
