Ricoh GR Digital - 2006 Creative Set - Complete + Boxed

Several years back, I somehow ended up with a complete Ricoh GR Digital 'Creative Set'. This is the very first digital GR, from 2006 - a pretty special camera IMO. Includes original packaging, paperwork, batteries, charger, cables, manuals, accessories, CDs - everything. Here's the 2006 Press Release: https://www.ephotozine.com/article/ricoh-gr-digital-creative-set-2824

The set:

• GR Digital
  -Rechargeable Battery (DB-60)
  -Battery Charger (BJ-6)
  -Wide Conversion Lens (GW-1)
  -External View Finder (GV-1)
  -Hood & Hood Adapter (GH-1)
  -Camera Case (GC-1)
  -Neck Strap (GS-1)
  
  

I actually already had a one of these cameras when I found this, but it seemed too rare/weird an opportunity to pass up. Because of this, it's never seen any real use whilst I've owned it. It's just been hidden away for years - patiently awaiting your custodianship.

There's a choice of cameras: the top one is my original one, it's seen some use though all fairly light (tiny rubs and scuffs, slight wear to the grips and a bit more dust), the bottom one has seen barely any use (although there's a little dust and some tiny marks too) - but it does have a light scratch on the LCD.

So hard to price because it's completely impossible to find. The set was £699 when it came out in 2006, but it looks like you can find the camera for about £200 these days in fairly good condition. The accessories are quite sought after funnily enough, especially the finder. And judging by eBay, it looks like you could cobble together the camera and main accesories for around £400.

I think £500 is fair for such a complete timewarp. But let me know if I'm off. Happy to sell one of the cameras on it's own too - there's another case and strap to go with that, plus a third party charger and some batteries.

Complete Set: £500
Camera only: £200 (also boxed, inc. OG case, strap + 3rd party charger, 2 batteries)

Collection from Hoxton, but happy to post too.
