Good point made Geezer.
I think the New price for all my equipment, even a today's prices is over £1,300.
I know I will have to sell for a lot less than that, which is going to hurt as I know how little use its had.
I was just trying to get a feel for the value.
I do love it when I can fly and get that perfect video/picture that you can't get by any other means.
It's just not that frequently used to justify the value sat in a box.

A P3P in Jessops is £949.00.

Looking at the sold ones on ebay, I'd say you're looking at £750.00, ...

Nigel, look again...

That is a Phantom 3 4K .This is NOT the same drone.
Look for a Phantom3 Pro price. £949.
Massive difference between the 2 drones.

No, an old relative from the ancient cartoon swamp & forest...
I like yours. It often reminds me of Barney, my deceased mustached parakeet. ;-)
He was partial, to the BONG (of the mantle clock) hehe

Thanks Nigel.
I'd want to sell on as a complete package if poss.
I might of been better keeping my P ...

Just FYI, I sold my P3P this weekend for £640 on ebay & 2 spare batteries & a warmer for £140.

Batteries & warmer on eBay

After checking the Royal Mail website, it appears they won't ship LiPo batteries seperately.  However, they will ship batteries that are installed into equipment together with up to two spares, hence I sold the battery warmer with the batteries to power it.

It's about what I expected.

Not planning on getting anything for a few months, I need to buy a car for work so I'm busy saving & selling everything to fund that.  Once that's out of the way though I'll start looking at what's available maybe.

Never mind the Karma, check out the Mavick - and I'm afraid it's relatively low price will hammer the 2nd hand value of the Phantoms, inc the P4.

Aside from that, as a general guide I presume 2nd hand items are worth 1/2 of the new price. If the item is in hot demand higher, in low demand then lower. As the demand is now for the Mavick and Karma, along with the P4, I just don't see the P3Pro being worth very much. A buyer would have to accept A. 2nd hand B. bulky form factor and C. lower spec than new, smaller models.

In the world of fast-moving hi-tech, it's a dinosaur.

In contrast to all that, it's entirely free as you already have it, it takes amazing photos and video, and with some care and concern not to disturb people, you can still legally use it.

I used to enjoy hunting rabbits and pigeon in the UK with my trusty air rifle. Now THAT'S a restricted hobby... but as someone mentioned, get up early, or shoot towards dusk. Works with both rabbits and great lighting for video ;)

Everything else aside, it's worth pointing out how the 'sunk cost fallacy' is a real thing, it hurts and feels horrible, but it's called a fallacy for a reason. It's human nature to resent the fact we spent a lot on something now worth much less, or even worthless, but if you step outside yourself and get all logical for a moment..? Who cares? You bought what you wanted, you had some fun, if the hobby is not for you anymore then just move on. If you get ANY money for something you don't want then that's a bonus. Think of all those that bought one and crashed it beyond repair, or badly programmed Litchi and lost it?

Bottom line, you spent your money on a great drone, flew a great drone, got some great footage and hey, you've still GOT a great drone. If you no longer want it and someone gives you money for it, that's a nice bonus!

It's not worth letting it, or people messing about and being silly, upset you.
