Good morning everyone,
I currently have my eyes open looking for my first underwater photography kit and am evaluating used equipment.
Scrolling through the various ads, I was also checking at the same time the prices of the same equipment but new, so as to understand the savings.
At this point I'm wondering, if I wanted to try to assume an average annual depreciation of used equipment, what percentage loss do you think I could consider?
An average estimate, but considering good or very good condition material.
To give a random, but concrete example : let's say a housing plus a wet lens plus a strobe that in total have a value of $3000 if bought new.
After one year, what percentage would you take off that $3000 if you were to resell it or evaluate used equipment? (A percentage that can work for both seller and buyer)
Many thanks
