Kolar Box Kolex
The Kolar Box Kolex is a box-format camera made by Kolar. It is an entry-level fixed-lens design of the kind sold to amateur photographers, and it appears infrequently on the collector market.
Sales data for the Box Kolex is extremely thin: the only UK auction record on file is a single hammer result of £380 in 2013, so any sense of current value is provisional. Because saleroom appearances are so rare, what a Box Kolex is worth today depends heavily on who is bidding on the day, and a clean example could sell for materially more or less than that figure.
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.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Kolar Box Kolex worth?
On the only UK auction record we have, a Box Kolex sold for £380 at hammer in 2013; with just one data point, current value is uncertain.
How much does a Kolar Box Kolex sell for at auction?
The sole recorded UK saleroom result is £380, so the price a Box Kolex sells for today cannot be reliably pinned down without more recent comparables.
Is the Kolar Box Kolex a common camera?
Auction appearances are rare, which is why there is so little public price history to anchor a market value.
