Hi there,
I'm looking to upgrade to full frame in the new year. Was going to sell my 60d along with my 17-55mm lens on ebay around November, then buy a 6d in January (i have a 550d to keep me sane in December ;)
Yesterday i noticed that Wex are offering a bonus £100 on part exchange if you buy a 6d before november, so i decided to request a quote for the body and lens.
Today they've emailed me a quote for £690, with the bonus it would be £790.

Has anybody used ebay to sell their 60d or 17-55 recently? Could i expect a lot more than wex are offering? Looking at current offerings on ebay hasn't given me a real indication of what to expect. Any thoughts would be much appreciated!
 
Thank you all for the feedback, I agree about ebay - I've had problems on there in the past with stuff I've sold.

Based on Sh4rkie's estimates, I'd be looking at 850 - 900, minus selling fees if I did go down the ebay route.

I'll check out LCE too, thanks for that tip!
 
Final value fees are 10% up to a maximum of £75 IIRC, so you could be very close to what WEX have already offered.

Very true, plus I'd probably have to sell them separately to get the most interest - so I could end up paying more than £75 in fees for the body and the lens...
