Aivas Phooebus
The Aivas Phooebus is a camera offered under the Aivas marque. Available reference data for this model is limited, so detailed specification and history cannot be confirmed here.
UK auction evidence for the Phooebus is very thin: a single hammer result of £700 from November 2004 is the only verified saleroom data point on file, so a meaningful current price range cannot be quoted for today's market. Because that figure is wholesale (auction hammer, exclusive of commission) and more than two decades old, it should be treated as a historical reference rather than a reliable guide to what the camera is worth or sells for in 2026.
Sales History
Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
