Upgrade Your Gear the Easy Way
At Golden State Cameras, our Trade-In program lets you trade in your used camera gear and apply its value toward a new purchase. Get more value and less hassle when you’re ready to upgrade your equipment!
⭐ How It Works
-
Submit a Pre-Evaluation
Send us detailed photos of your equipment along with a full description (including accessories, condition, age, and shutter count for cameras). Also tell us what gear you want to buy next — links or model names are great.
We’ll respond with a trade-in estimate. -
Expert Review & Confirmation
Our team reviews your submission (typically within 24 hours) and confirms the trade-in value. Once approved, we’ll contact you with the offer. -
Bring It In & Complete the Trade-In
Bring your gear into Golden State Cameras to finalize the exchange. We’ll inspect your equipment in person and complete the trade-in toward your new purchase.
Please bring a valid ID for documentation.
⭐ Example
Let’s say you want a new camera that costs $1,500:
-
Your old camera is valued at $700.
-
You’d only need to pay $800 to take home the new gear!
