Specific Info on each item:
5dii:
I ordered this almost exactly a year ago from adorama for $2500. Refurbished You ask? Yes however I chose to purchase the refurbished one because canon's refurbished items are known for having better reliability records than non refurbished items because they go through quality control/fine tuning etc twice. Their refurbished items are not used and are usually simply items that did not make it through QC at first, were looked at more closely and checked over, fine tuned and then sold at verified refurbished items through vendors like adorama. If you have more questions/concerns about that feel free to do a google search or ask me. So I think at this point the value is equal to a new item.
Anyways, as for the quality it is in now, it certainly isn't mint, but not too bad either. There are some small scratches and blemishes here and there and the LCD and top screen are both a tiny bit scratched up. The biggest scratch is below the lens on the bottom corner of the camera. Its about 5mm long and one wide. Everything else is much smaller than that. I am trying to be really specific and not downplay anything so I don't have an unhappy customer but in my opionion it doesn't look that worn. I've used it much less than I wanted to this past year. Functionally everything is fine.
Asking around $2,000

^^The flash makes the labels look weird but they are normal and silver
^^I also think the flash makes the lcd look worse than it is but w/e.
Canon EF 28mm F1.8:
Bought new a year ago with the 5d. Some light blemishes/marks on BODY of the lens. The glass is spotless/new looking to me though as a disclaimer I am no lens expert. I was careful with it, cleaned it correctly with zeiss and nikon cleaning fluids and never dropped it or anything. The image will not look any different from a new lens.
Sold new at B and H for $460. Asking for $400.
Pictures:
Canon EF 85mm F1.8 (not for sale yet):
This one is in same condition as the 28mm except perhaps a tiny bit more worn because it was my favorite lens. There is a 6mm thin scratch next to where it says 85mm at the base. This one is not for sale quite yet but will be soon. I will update this soon with pics. Here are two for now:
Canon Vixia HF-10:
This thing is in pretty good condition. Something about the finish makes it resilient to wear I think because it only has TINY marks/scratches. Everything is in good, working condition. The lens is automatically covered except when recording and the LCD is in pretty much perfect condition because since the time I bought it (a year and a half ago or so), I have kept it covered with a screen protector. For a list of all the features etc you can look on canon's website. Here it is on amazon where I bought it: http://www.amazon.com/Canon-HF10-Definition-Camcorder-Stabilized/dp/B001144JQU . Looks like they have the features listed there as well. This is a GREAT B camera, sports camera, crash cam, v-logging camera, or even can be used by beginners or budget conscious people as an A cam. The vixias are renowned for having amazing color and image quality for their price and many people use them with 35mm adaptors and get ridiculously good results. It has 24p mode.
Asking for around $520
Pictures (sorry the focus is kinda screwed up on these since I was in a rush, was using a lens with horrible minimum focus distance, and had to crop them as well):
Raynox HD 3032 pro Semi Fisheye Conversion Adapter Add on lens (0.3x, 37mm)
This is a fisheye adapter for the HF-10 or any other camcorder with 37mm threads on the lens. Here is the lens on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Raynox-HD-303...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1280269076&sr=1-1 . Another guy is selling it for 150 on there. When I bought it, it was, and may still be, the best you can get without going to the 300 dollar leica one or whatever brand it was. I absolutely loved this lens. Is really high quality for a fisheye adapter. The CA etc is really really minimal compared to other adapters. In pretty good quality. Nothing wrong with the glass and the body has very light use marks. Less than my canon lenses.
Sells on amazon for 100 bucks or so. Asking for $76

Manfrotto Modosteady:
This thing is cool. It's a stabilizer for light cameras that can be used in three configurations. It might work with a Gh1 and works ok with an HF10. I found it useful with my HF10 but even that was a TAD bit heavy for the steady-cam config. I used the gunstock one more often anyways though.

Sells on amazon for around $95. Asking for $72.

Bush Hawk "Video Camera Mount"
This is basically the gunstock mount with no trigger (which is just for taking pics faster) or strap plus the handle addition. Here it is on there website (not safari friendly): http://www.bushhawk.com/_product_42133/Video_Camera_Mount. Here is a short video of it from bushhawk: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzLVyZSAjKw&feature=player_embedded
I have no pics of this but it is in pretty good condition. I put a couple of strips of neon orange gaff tape on it for safety issues (so it's not mistaken at long range for a weapon) which I can clean off as best I can if you wish, or I can leave them on if you want. The pad on the gunstock thing also slides from side to side a bit so I taped that but it got a bit sticky. I am going to clean it as best I can but this item is sold as is. It can be a very cool tool if you modify it a bit/add on to it it can make an awesome rig.
Sells for 145 on their website. Asking for $100 as is.
CGA-D54s 5400mAh battery for DVX, HVX, HPX? etc
This is the super reliable panasonic brand battery. Here it is on B and H: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/282863-REG/Panasonic_CGAD54SE_1B.html . It has been sitting on my shelf for a few months but I don't think that is bad is it?
Asking for $140 OBO
pic I took when I was selling my DVX. It's the top battery though they are essentially the same:
So that's it. Prices do not include shipping and are open to negotiation within reason. I am in California so the closer you are the better though I'll ship anywhere in the states if you cover the shipping/insurance. If you are outside the country we may be able to work something out so PM me. If you have any questions feel free to ask. PM me offers. Thanks
Oh and I sold a DVX on here a while ago when they were still worth something and the buyer had no complaints.
