For Sale FS: Pelican Watertight Camera Cases (USA only)

Pelican Watertight Camera Cases. These are all in very good condition: they close and seal properly, there are no broken parts of pieces. Cosmetically, they show scuffs and marks from moving them around. Most of them have the papped divider basket, some have the "Pick 'n Pluck' foam whereby you may fit in a piece of equipment by plucking the foam. All of them have the Watertight O-Ring Seal. All are Made in the USA (if this is something that matters to you).

For the most part, I have priced each case at approx. 50% or better of the current street prices. Shipping cost will vary depending on how far they need to be shipped from zip code 10021. Shipping costs can be combined for pairs of two cases (the boxes will become too large beyond 2 cases). Pick-up in NYC (Manhattan), near my office is a welcomed option and is awarded a small discount

I have written down the approx. exterior dimension for each case and the shipping weight; for complete specifications, I encourage you to check the Pelican website or some of the well-know vendors.

For those that do not know about these cases...
I had one for my sextant which I used occasionally on my sailing other life.
One day I tripped and fell on deck while underway and the Pelican fell overboard with the sextant inside.
The sucker floated and, after a difficult tack I was able tpo pick it up with the gaff.
The sextant was drier than an orange peel on the desert sands!

Yikes! I underpriced them - too late!


I once lost my footing on a mountain stream and the case 'rafted' for a while: bouncing on the rocks and so on; nothing got wet and nothing was damaged. The key is to close the Seal Ring under the handle.
