I'm heading to Berlin for a few days tomorrow, and I figured I might pop in here and ask if anyone had any suggestions on a good place to find used gear. I imagine things will be pretty expensive but it would still be cool to check out!
 
Don’t waste your time in the most famous flea markets, like on Sundays in Mauerpark. Sometimes you can find good stuff at the smaller ones, but most of the stuff I’ve seen is junk. Stores are getting more expensive all the time.

If you need film, chemistry or the occasional accessory, Fotoimpex is the place to be.
 
And I thought it was about shops selling used photos...

I really wouldn’t want to know what they’d been used for!

I did go into a shop nearish our hotel. 300€ for a K1000 with a Ricoh lens! Film prices were pretty good though.

Maybe apt... in many years of intensively looking around at fleamarkets, thrift stores and the few camera stores selling used stuff I do not remember ever having come across a K1000.
