Separate or mixed lot on eBay?

[havana_joe]

I hope this is the right forum for this question.

I have been looking over my equipment and I'm seriously thinking of selling it all and starting over with one camera, maybe something from the Olympus PEN series. I'm just a hobbyist, and I want one camera/lens for general purpose use. I'm considering listing on eBay, as I've used it many times before and have 100% positive feedback. My question is, am I better off splitting this up into 4 auctions, or doing one large mixed lot? Thoughts on about how much you think I can get for this equipment? All are used but gently, all have cases, manuals, cables, etc.

~700 on the first, maybe $50 on the second with a broken flash, ~$120 on third, no clue on the fourth, maybe $200....

Those are my guesses anyway,

Ok, so about $1000 or so total. Probably a good estimate. Do you think I'd need to do 4 auctions or better to try for one mixed lot? Thanks!

Definitely not all together, but seperated in the 4 groups you've done. I might seperate out some of the Nikon gear, that might increase your bidding by $100 or so.

The 18-200 is more marketable as a kit lens, and the 35 has a more uniquely pursued value.

Thank you so much- I appreciate it!

Generally speaking, you will get more selling the items individually.

Thanks all!
