Yashica TL Electro X
The Yashica TL Electro X is a 35mm single-lens reflex film camera introduced by Yashica in the late 1960s. It was positioned as a mid-range enthusiast SLR within Yashica's M42 screw-mount system.
UK auction data for the TL Electro X is thin: the only verified hammer result on record is a single 2023 sale at £25, so any sense of what the camera is worth today rests on that lone wholesale data point rather than a developed price curve. Buyers researching what a TL Electro X sells for should treat the figure as indicative of saleroom level for an untested or cosmetically average body, with clean, fully-working examples potentially commanding more at retail.
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.
