Hi.
I'm new to the forum and know very little about photography.
In July last year a very close friend passed away. He was a very keen amateur photographer, mainly film. The majority of his estate was left to charity.
We are now left with the contents of his dark-room which includes such things as: a Durst M605 colour enlarger with a great many accessories, lenses, exposure meter, color analyser, etc for it. A Durst RCP20 developing unit which I don't think has ever been used. A very large amount of photo paper in many sizes, lots of chemicals, washing tanks, dryers, LPL 20"x23" easel mask, etc, etc. etc.
I'm just north of Birmingham, nr Lichfield.
I know that I could start listing it on eBay but I would not really know how to list it all correctly. Also, I know that my late friend would prefer to know that it went to a good home.
Although there is a lot of expensive equipment I am not expecting fortunes for it and any money raised will go to his chosen charity.
If you have an interest and can perhaps help me with the identification and valuation of some of the stuff please PM me.
I am very aware that you have rules about selling on your forum and I do not wish to break those rules but unless I can obtain some help with my task I will not be able to post anything about the stuff even after the 30 days and the required post count. I felt that I needed to give an incite into the type of equipment that will eventually be on the market to your members. I can only quote the name of the stuff above because that's what it says on it.
Thanks.
Dave
