Questions

What is an Ordinary Kodak Camera worth today?

With just one verified sale on file, a precise current value is not possible, though four-figure prices are consistent with the segment when clean examples appear.

Why is the price so variable?

Condition, originality, and completeness drive the price of very early Kodak cameras, and thin sales volume means each appearance can shift the perceived market range.
