that's probably my best option was just wondering if anybody knew anywhere or anyone locally as postage cost would probably outweigh the value of the camera

Worth having a look and see if they go for anything on ebay. A lot of people collect vintage cameras. If you decide a price then PM me.... might be interested if they are in good nick. Starting to collect a few myself for my office at home.

I had an OM10 with loads of lenses and filters etc. I just gave it all to my niece who seems to be into 35mm photography for some reason, though digital photography has all but killed it off.

You could try sticking an ad in the advertiser as a job lot for a hundred quid or so. Someone's bound to be interested in the tripod so you might want to sell that separately, but there might still be people who like mucking about in darkrooms or who just collect old cameras.

I would try the shop. The shop in Darlo that has recently closed (near The Green Dragon) was very good, they sold quite a lot of stuff for me.

I sold an OM10 with a lot of accessories last year on ebay, I got the princely sum of £25, it cost £8 to post via Parcel force
