EDIT: Best offer over $20k takes it. I am accepting offers until Monday the 17th. Thanks


Howdy doodie-

I have come to a point where its better for me to rent a camera than invest in this one. This camera has done very well for me and I will continue to use Red cameras (just not own one at this time!).

First off, everything is in good condition. This stuff hasn't been on the "Rental market". There are only minor signs of use. I just got the camera back from Red headquarters to get it checked out (This camera doesn't yet have the audio or i-pin upgrade yet but it will be available to you as soon as the serial number comes up). This camera is still under warranty as well and it is the most "stable" Red One I have ever used- thank goodness.

So here's what I have- Very basic package:


1x Red one body w/PL mount
1x CF module
1x BNC adapter
1x mini-XLR adapter
1x Top mount
1x Top handle
1x Battery Plate
1x HR lightweight battery mount
3x 8GB CF cards
3x Red brick batteries
1x Red charger
1x Aux power cable
1x Red 5.6" LCD (newer one)
1x Short Red arm
1x Red LCD cable
1x Custom lightweight 15mm baseplate (60mm spacing)
1 pair x 15mm 9" stainless iris rods
1 pair x 15mm 4" Carbon fiber iris rods
1x Lexar Professional firewire 800 CF Reader
1x Black/Red Portabrace semi-rigid carry-on bag for the Camera and accessories


The value is around $24,000. I am looking for the best offer over $20,000.

My serial is 1244 so you also get ahead of some 4000+ other people for scarlet and epic. Not to mention the camera is worth its full value for trade-in to epic.

Save a few thousand! Send me a PM.

I will post when its sold.


Here are some pictures:

I have been asked to show pictures, here are some (matteboxes, tripods, handgrips and other accessories not listed above are obviously not included):

Note: I prefer to sell this as a package if possible.

FYI- just the body,LCD, cards and batteries would cost you ~$22500, so theoretically if you bought this for $20k, you would put $2500 back in your pocket. The other stuff is just a bonus.

More picturs:

(there is now black velcro instead of white for using sunshades- I can take it off if you want)

Portbrace (look how wonderful it fits):

And here is proof about what I said about renting Red camera packages from someone else instead of renting accessories for mine!:

Any special reason to sell it Richard?

It's not exactely the package i was thinking but in case you want to have a free flight to europe to bring it, im probably interested
Obvisouly you could add the flight ticket price on top :)

Thanks Martin ; )

Viny-

Honestly, I wasn't planning on buying a red one at first. Then I had a few longer jobs come up and so I bought it and everything went well. Being that I have a very basic camera package, I often rent the needed accessories per job, and sometimes its actually cheaper to rent a whole camera package with ET and Arri gear for cheaper than just renting the accessories for use on my camera- go figure! I only use this camera a few days per month now and I have been on a film binge. I have been wanting to get an aaton a-minima to use for some personal projects and b-roll, so thats what I am planning on doing. I am going to buy a used a-minima and then defer the rest of the money I get from the sale to pay off some other bills.

Like I said earlier, For me this inst a departure from the Red system, I really like the Red and I like working with the Red. I am still going to shoot on Red, it just wont be my camera that I use.

Also, I would love a free ticket to Europe! I will play "UPS" for the day.
 
"My serial is 1244 so you also get ahead of some 4000+ other people for scarlet and epic"

i don't think that the new owners takes your place in line to buy Epic or Scarlet ... i think YOU will still be 1244 whether you own 1244 or not (= you would have to buy it for new owners of 1244 ) ?? i could be wrong but i would think that i am always 103 in line no matter what camera # i currently own ..
 
I thought I read somewhere on Reduser that the serial# followed the camera new owner?

the RED body is worth full value on a trade up to Epic (even if you bought used ) ..

again i'm not sure about this ... i was 103 to place a order for REDone ... i'm will always be #103 in line for new products in the future .. if i sell 103 IMO the new owner does NOT become #103 in line ...
i remain #103 for new products etc till i expire !!! ....
Red might look at it different ????
perhaps Red could chime in here as we wouldn't want to tell buyers of used camera's that their used camera number will be their place in line for epic ( and if it does go by camera # then low #'s could be worth more $$ in used market)
 
donatello- would you mind making your own thread to discuss this?- This is a thread I made for selling the camera.

Regardless of if the legalities of it, if you buy s/n 1244, I can make sure you get a future camera in the place of 1244 should you decide to go that route.
