What kind of tripod do you have?

Hi, It's a Velbon - only a little one, suitable for a DSLR. You can see photos here: https://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/panasonic-gh4-with-a-14-140mm-135-56-lens-and-velbon-tripod-with-fluid-head/1145234094

You can also try Gumtree, free.

Well, ebay. You'll pay Final Value Fees and, if paid by Paypal, Paypal fees too, of around 3.5%. I'm not sure what the FVF are for private sellers on digital cameras, but I do know that for Business Sellers (like me) the FVF for selling a digital camera is capped at £20 for some odd reason.

Beware of scammers on ebay, of course. If you change your site preferences so that buyer must have a credit card on file with ebay, that'll block 99% of scam buyers.

Then there's Gumtree, where, I think, there is no equivalent to ebay's FVF. The last time I looked, which was a long while back, Gumtree was stuffed with scam listings, so I imagine it also has scam buyers.

Posting on Shooting People might work. You'd be very unlikely to get a scam buyer on Shooters. But not many eyeballs see SP listings compared to ebay listings.

And there's also BBlist - they take a 10% cut for acting as an escrow service.

And TV-bay (if it still exists) - you pay a fee to place a listing on TV-bay, but there's no FVF there (well, there wasn't the last time I used it, which was maybe 5 years back).

By the way, I've noticed that the resale price of the Panny GH4 has dropped somewhat of late. Expect to be disappointed.
