Probably one of the best buys in m43 right now is lightly used EM1 IIs going for around $800 or so. Fred Miranda is full of them. Probably people just dying to throw $1K to the wind to get the latest model.

I have noticed prices for m43 gear there are in a severe slump and often just never sell even at pretty attractive prices. Seems to be a flood of used m43 gear as people move to larger format systems.

May not be the case - we have a flood of barely used GH5 round here, as people sell them because they didn't have time to get into video after all.

Probably just going to use their phones in many cases.

Great thing is, the resale price for GH5 and GH5s have just plummeted.

Well I bought a PL 8-18 and Oly 40-150 2.8 last year and both owners said they were selling because they changed over to FF mirrorless.  Small sample size indeed, but in my case 100% of sellers were going to a larger format.  Both may be sold by me soon for the same reason, so there is definitely a trend.
