Re: Selling NX gear on eBay - any demand?

I recently tried to sell my NX3300 on eBay. I have had it 2 or 3 years but it is in very good condition and I've never had any problems with it. I had a reserve price of just £150 but there were no takers. I thought this was a very good price but I'm wondering if prices on Ebay are deceptive. There are currently 5 or 10 NX3300s listed on eBay, most of them ranging from £250 - £500. One is even listed at £1000!! What is going on here? Brand new from a camera shop this camera would be worth £300-£400 maximum, even if it wasn't a discontinued system.
My conclusion is that there actually isn't much demand for the NX cameras now apart from the NX1 and NX500. Other models will only sell if they are very cheap. I think a lot of the listings are at unrealistic prices, knowing that they won't be sold, just to give a false impression of what a fair price is. Am I right or just paranoid?! And what do you think is a fair price for the NX3300 (with the 20-50mm kit lens)? Less than £100 and I would rather keep it as a backup for my NX500!
Nx1 and NX500 are still near the top of their segment, NX3300/3000 are 20mgpxls (everyone has a similar or greater megapixel count these days) while NX1/500 are 28 - still most in business, have no touch screen interface whatsoever, which was a strong selling point for NX those days, AF is rather primitive, even compared to the NX300 or similar cameras, its screen is nothing like the SAMOLED of the better models, video is so so, low bitrate with no 50/60 option and not much options, and the 20-50 is one of the less popular NX lens (no IS and at 20mm is not wide at all to be honest).
NX3000/3300 is a hard sell, when you can buy for similar money a much more advanced NX300 or other brand/system.
190pounds is too much for an NX3xxx camera and the 20-50. maybe with the PZ worths 190/200/220£.
My opinion? Just keep it! I have 2 NX1/NX500 and NX3000.
