Just sorting through some gear and was considering selling my Nikon D3200 kit.  Thought I'd check Ebay to see what prices they are going for and found this!

nikon d3200 | eBay

How are these camera's selling for £600??  I paid nowhere near that price back in 2015!

I was thinking full kit for somewhere around the £150/200 range, is this realistic?

Sounds about right, depends on the shutter count.

Those 2 ending at £600 from the same seller look a bit odd to me.

Agreed, just can't work out who can gain from a fake sale (if that's what it is)?

Trying to fool buyers into bidding high on next sale perhaps

Dunno. The sellers account was quite old with only 8 feedback in several years.
Listing 2 identical items that sold at 4x their real value is very strange. I can’t see how anyone immediately benefits unless it was something complicated to do with the payment rather than the goods.
I’m not suggesting it’s necessarily dodgy, but it is very odd.

Decided not to sell, gave my eldest a basics lesson last night and he took some very nice images.  I think it's a perfect camera to learn with.  He mentioned that he's always liked street photography and follows a few groups on Instagram with images of that nature.  I'm giving him a 18-55 & 60-300 lens, could anyone tell me which kind of lens works best with these images, must admit it's not something I've done before.

I'd say the 18-55 would be the better out of those two...For street I like 35mm or 50mm a lot.
