Your best bet is to eBay it or sell it on a local Craigslist if you have one. It is a buyers market though. I doubt you could get more than $50 for the body. If you really want to get rid of it you can always donate it to charity and take a tax write-off.

I'm with Mr. Pickles. Why sell it? =) And as bob pointed out, you really don't get much money for it so more fun to keep it for nostalgia if you wont shoot one roll of film with it.

On the other hand, its still a lot of fun shooting film =)

I still shoot with film sometimes. I love it. To me the pictures are much sharper and colors are more vibrant.

But hence, I understand your dilema. The fastest and easiest way is a pawn shop. But you won't get much for it. If you know anyone with high school kids have them ask their friends in the school paper or yearbbok club. ebay and craigslist would be ok, but then you have to share the money.

You're not going to get much for it unless the buyer's severely uninformed.
