KEH Urges Americans to Sell Their Camera Gear for Cash and Environmental Benefit Ahead of the Holidays


With no listings, no bidding and no hidden fees, KEH provides the peace of mind that only comes from a company that has reliably delivered quality and value to its customers for more than 40 years.

ATLANTA, Oct. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — KEH, the largest and most trusted purchaser and reseller of pre-owned camera gear in North America, recommends Americans dig up their photo gear and explore potential opportunities for selling them to build up their bank accounts before the holiday season. In addition to raising cash, sellers will also minimize waste by keeping their gear in the hands of another photographer and out of landfills.

“You may be sitting on a gold mine without even realizing it. The time to cash in on your older camera gear is now,” said Noah Treshnell, CEO of KEH, the original reseller of pre-owned camera gear that has been trusted for more than four decades by countless professionals, collectors, content creators and hobbyists. “There’s no listing, bidding or hidden fees at KEH. You’re just a few easy steps away from turning your camera equipment into cash today.”

In today’s fast-paced world of technology and innovation, older cameras, lenses and other photo/video equipment often get replaced by the latest and greatest models. But what many people don’t realize is that these pre-owned items are frequently highly sought after in the secondhand market by professional photographers, amateur hobbyists and vintage collectors.

For selling gear, KEH offers fair and transparent prices, provides a free online gear estimator tool based on real-time market data and makes its photography experts available by phone and video chat in virtual appointments. Providing free two-way shipping for gear appraisals above $100, its team of expert technicians then inspects the condition of gear and a payment to the seller is processed within 24 hours. Sellers can also get an additional 10% trade-in bonus on the value of their gear to use towards a purchase. By eliminating all the hassles and risks of selling privately – including no listings, no bidding and no hidden fees – KEH provides the convenience and peace of mind that only comes from a company that has reliably delivered to sellers of gear for more than 40 years.

“With other reselling marketplaces, there’s no guarantee your pre-owned gear will sell, fetch a good and fair price for the value or that the item is going to good hands who will love it as you did,” added Treshnell. “Selling with KEH solves all of these problems.”

KEH is a pioneer and leader in building the circular economy, aiming to minimize waste by keeping products in use for as long as possible. Sellers to KEH are supporting the path to a more sustainable future for all, which is a core value and purpose at KEH.
