Years ago my hubby's uncle-in-law sold us his late father's large format camera body, lens, case, and a nice Bogen tripod (which wasn't really beefy enough for that camera, but perfect for digital SLR or med. format). We paid $250 for the entire set-up.

Maybe a year or two later I sold the camera body, lens, and case for $800 on eBay, since it wasn't practical to keep that set-up without my own darkroom. that $800 paid for about half of my first DSLR.
