I have a Schneider 165mm Super-Angulon 1:8/165 #8983647 Lense. I am looking to sell it too afford myself a 4x5 camera. I just had it serviced. It has a little cosmetic chips but no dents or dings. How much should I sell it for? Thank You

Chips?? In the glass or where??

just on the outisde of the lense. there is some cosmetic wear. around the shutter adjustment. nothing that hinders the functioning of the lense. its just a aesthetic flaw.
My suggestion, Luke, would be to search past auctions on eBay to get an idea of what the market is. Chips at the edge of the front element will likely have a significant impact on what the market is willing to pay, however. It's sort of like those "if-only" situations on Antique Roadshow.
