As a photographer for school events I've been out of work since March due to Covid, it's unlikely I will have any work until at least September.
So in this down time, using my web development skills I have built a tool for finding and comparing prices of used camera gear, from over 60 retailers.
https://usedlens.co.uk
Searching is fast, and you can imagine how much time you're saving from checking 60 retailers manually.
I'm still adding more and more retailers, feel free to share it with other communities or facebook groups as it should be well received by all photographers.

That is good but could be better if you could specify price range.
Could you add a picklist of popular lenses/cameras with standard photos?1 -
I will mull it over thanksPaula_Smith said:That is good but could be better if you could specify price range.

Price range I could do, but being able to programmatically identify results for what lens/camera they are is not easy. Many retailers do not even provide enough information to discern between camera and lens, it will be a lot of work to standardise the results. I would love to do it though.0
