Definitely too high.
Anyway, it will end up in 5 days and I'll keep you posted with the amount that it went for.

that's pretty low estimate

That's actually spot on - that's about how I evaluate these "I am not a camera person and don't know nothing about this stuff" non-Ai Nikkors. |

The Nikkor lenses, and there are lots of them on the lot, make it a desirable deal but being a closed letter auction from a governmental agency I'd say most of that stuff was used frequently and they were probably workhorses with lots of exposures.
Also, the fact that they display the bodies with the sensores facing up means whoever did this showcasing had no care at all for the hardware, not a good start I'd say.

Also, it's worth remembering that all this gear is likely engraved, and not in the nice way like some old Russian rangefinders are. |
