Argus K
The Argus K is a 35mm film camera from the American maker Argus, produced in the mid-20th century as part of the company's range of consumer cameras.
Sales data for the Argus K is extremely thin: a single UK auction hammer result on record sold for £200 in 2017, so any current value estimate today should be treated as indicative rather than firm. With only one wholesale saleroom data point, the price a clean example sells for can vary widely depending on condition, completeness and buyer interest on the day.
Sales History
Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher. How this figure is calculated.
