|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Broken Equipment Eric Sucar, Photographer Central Jersey | NJ | USA | Posted: 10:12 AM on 02.17.12 ->> Does anyone know of a place that pays for old/broken cameras, lenses etc. to use for spare parts? I have a couple of broken down Nikon D2H's and lenses (that aren't worth getting fixed) collecting dust in a closet. Before I turn them into flower pots I'd like to see if there's a chance to get something out of them. I apologize if this has been addressed before and if someone can guide to the proper message I'd appreciate it. Thanks. - e  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

You might be shocked at what you get for them.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

My guess is those 32 bidders all have CPS gold/platinum membership, and get a huge discount on repairs!  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

You can also call KEH in Atlanta, but It looks like eBay is the place to unload your old gear.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
