Thanks for your replies.
I do have an eBay membership but I've never used it to buy or sell as I've got to learn a few more things about it.
Its roger9984 buy there's obviously no feedback yet.
I would put a price of GBP 240.00 on the camera +lens which considering the sheer optical quality and the results its capable of is very reasonable. I would consider a close offer.
This does not include the cost of postage / packing which I would need to check on and recharge at cost.
I can upload photos of the camera if this will help.

I forgot I've also got a Vivitar 70-300 macro zoom lens for with Contax MM fit. Its obviously not as good as the optical standard of the Zeiss 50mm lens but I've had what I felt were excellent results with it over the years.
I would include this for GBP 20.00 if sold with the camera & Zeiss lens.
Best wishes to you all
Darlotte

That was me, but I'm somewhat extended financially at the moment as I'm in the middle of switching my DSLR from Nikon to Canon. Unless you're looking for Nikon primes to trade Very Happy

Thanks for your reply Wintoid.
I'm not in any hurry to sell it and I've not advertised it anywhere except on this forum.
Also, I have estimated what I think is a reasonable price but it may be I'm too high?? I found a website yesterday that claims to give accurate values for classic cameras and am awaiting their reply. In the meantime I will upload some photos as soon as I get a chance.
Best wishes
