For Sale Darkroom items including 4x5 enlarger

[campy51]

I am arranging for someone to come clean out my basement and I wanted to see if anybody local wants to come by and pickup numerous darkroom items. Two Beseler 4x5 enlargers, lenses, trays, grain focusers, easels and many other items. I will leave it up to you to give me a reasonable offer or just tell me to junk it, but if you don't think it's worth anything but you will take some items for free then you take it all or none. I know it has some value but I don't want to spend the time selling individually. It needs to be within the next week so if interested let me know.

 

🛡️ Classifieds Safety Reminder: Please stay safe when buying and selling. Scams via hacked accounts are on the rise globally.

Best Practices: Always use a verified payment method with buyer protection (avoid "PayPal Friends & Family"). Services like Escrow.com are highly secure.

You're not giving us much to go on. I've sure that's because you don't care that much.

But can you give us a guess as the what you have??? -- such as the model numbers, the lenses.

Any details would be helpful, but I understand.

If you want someone to "TAKE IT ALL -- -ASAP -- AS" that works too!!!

Please consider donating what you have to the Vermont Center for Photography. Their Photo Thrift store (see: https://vcphoto.org/services/photothrift/) partially funds their many great activities.

They might be willing to travel to pick stuff up if you ask. If they can not do this, send me a private message and I'll consider driving down from NH to facilitate a donation.

The enlargers are Beseler 45MX I believe. The enlarging lenses are in ok condition and theirs so much miscellaneous items. I have a Cinestill temperature control unit but it's only been used once so I would want probably $75 for that. I guess the rest is worth what someone is willing to pay.

This is a wonderful option. I was a part-time gallery/darkroom manager there during college, a few years before they started the photo thrift. They still have great people and programs and deserve support.

If you are considering a small "open house" to let a few local folks peruse your basement of wonders, I would happily make the drive over, but am certainly not in a position to take it all.

This is most of what I have. If interested in all make an offer or most if not all will be sold on Facebook or donated. I would like a separate offer on the camera if anyone is interested. The second enlarger frame is off to the side and not photographed and will have to be put together. I don't know if the timers are all working. Also found a couple of other timers and misc. items and a Kodak basic 4x5 camera with case and film holders.

If you are interested in donation, I am the manager at a small community darkroom in Randolph, VT, and we could really use a lot of these items. I'll be in Brattleboro this weekend sourcing things we need from VCP, so if you're interested, I could make the journey down. https://whiterivercraftcenter.org/darkroom-photography
