Why not phone and ask for a quote? The MDa is a fairly common camera and usually trades in the $500US to $700US depending on demand. If your cameras had the original boxes, sales receipts and warranty forms then you might get more from the collectors .It is a good camera for using a Visoflex or a super wide lens.
