Title: Splitting a Rollei set
Post by: Graham Mitchell on September 28, 2008, 08:16:33 am

Sorry if anyone feels that this post doesn't belong here, but some people have expressed difficulty in finding Rollei 6000 gear used.

I know a guy who is selling this set, and wants to sell it as a complete set. Unfortunately, I just want the 110mm lens, and am in no position to buy the whole set and resell what I don't want.

So I was curious to see if there are people here interested in the whole set (or at least 90% of it), between us.

From what I can see there are 2 camera bodies, 2 film backs, a polaroid back, a master control unit, a 45 degree finder, a set of 3 extension rings, a 1.4x Longar, 2 batteries and 2 chargers (1 not pictured), Speedgrip, remote control, 2 x WLF, 80mm f2.8 lens with hood, 40mm f3.5 lens with hood, 55mm PCS lens, 180mm f2.8 lens, and a 110mm f2 lens.

So who wants what? I know there are people out there who'd kill for the rare 55 PCS (and I'd buy that too if I could), but they are all great lenses (I have the 40, 80 and 180 already).

Good question - I'll find out.

I knew the PCS would be the hot favourite. What's it worth? No-one's mentioning any numbers. I can confirm condition with the seller later but assume no bad news.

Out of curiosity, any idea what the 55mm PCS is worth?

I would say a minimum of $2500 USD depending on condition.
I paid $4200 for mine LNIB.

Cheers,

Here are the last two Ebay auctions I could find

I think Heartcycles is an occasional poster on LL, and he may have decided to sell one of these
