Bolex EL Price?


Recommended Posts

I'm thinking of selling my beloved Bolex EL. It is in Excellent+ condition. The only noticeable wear is a couple paint chips on the magazine adapter on the top of the camera. I see that Du-All is selling the same camera, without lens, for $12,500. Theirs is new.
 
I wonder what I can realistically get for it.
 
EL body S/N 3312787 - MKIII with 13x Finder
Converted to S16/16 (can configure for either) by Bolex Factory in 2013
Serviced/CLA'd by Bolex Factory in 2013
Bolex on-board battery, re-celled in 2013, works but may need to be re-celled again at some point.
Bolex 110v charger for above
Bolex bayonet to "C" and "mount plug" both currently being used for a body cavity cap
Kern 12-100 Vario Switar lens S/N1141941 - covers S16 above 25mm
Installed black Bolex eye cup 
Zoom wand
Bolex Time-Lapse unit S/N 1169 w/instructions
(1) five pin to five pin connector from tl to el
(1) Duall 12 v battery - needs to be re-celled
Filter pack with #9 Polarizer, #85, two retaining rings
Two chargers, one is inop but probably repairable

Xerox copy of EL instructions.
 
I also have a Les Bosher bayonet to PL adapter that I've used with Arri Ultra 16 lenses. I'm not sure I should sell that.
 
I'm pretty bummed that Jesse Chambless is gone. I really enjoyed being able to bounce questions off him and buy all the obscure little things I needed to keep my little circus functioning the way I wanted.
