SPRING CLEAN YOUR KITBAG WITH MPB

With longer days on the horizon, it’s time to freshen up your kitbag – and there’s no better way to do it than with MPB. Investing in MPB-approved used gear is guaranteed to save some money, and the easiest way to get some funds together is to delve into your camera bags and raise cash for the gear you don’t use any more. The ‘recommerce’ economy is booming and camera bodies are in high demand. That means the prices MPB will pay for your used body has increased. So, it’s a perfect time to move on your old mirrorless, DSLR, cinema camera or camcorder. For example, for excellent-condition bodies, MPB will pay up to £770 for a Sony A7 III, £735 for a Canon EOS 5D Mark IV or £465 for a Nikon D750. You can either take the cash or use it to fund something from MPB. Research shows the fastest-growing cameras in 2023 for used buyers and sellers were the Fujifilm X-T5 and X-H2, followed by the Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Panasonic Lumix S5 and Sony A7R V. And MPB is also offering £2100 for an excellent-condition Sony A7R V. All you have to do is go to the MPB website’s free online valuation tool, list your kit and describe its condition for an instant quote within seconds. You don’t need to have the original receipt. If your kit isn’t listed, MPB will be in touch via email with a price within a few days.

If you do not wish to go ahead with the sale, MPB simply sends your kit back. If you do agree to go ahead, cash is paid directly into your bank account, often as quickly as 24 hours. It’s as easy as that to sell your used equipment to MPB, which is why it’s so popular. If you change your mind at any point up until you get paid, your kit is shipped back for free.
