I know these are not as exciting as finding gold or silver in a TS, but these will turn a good profit and I can say I've grossed over a grand with maybe the last 5 or so cameras I've purchased in ts'rs and garage sales. This is the Olympus Stylus Epic DLX and they can sell for as much as $90.00 broken and as high as $400. in excellent condition. This I got last weekend for under $6.00. When you see these later model P&S cameras out there on the cheap, check the sold prices to be sure your looking at a winner. It seems almost all that have a +/- zoom feature aren't worth near as much as the fixed zoom P&S cameras and I believe that's due to the lens in those being mostly made of plastic. This camera has very sharp lens and that's what's most desired, from buyers. I picked up a bunch of Kodak 200 film cheap and I'll shoot a roll through it to verify the functionality. This one seems to be working perfect. One thing you'll find out after you shoot a roll is if the back cover has any light leaks from the seals of the back cover, and if they do, it doesn't really detract a whole lot from the value, as that's something most who seek these cameras can fix fairly easy.
