Used GoPros in Los Angeles typically sell for $81 to $335. Action cameras depreciate fast, and the battery and lens cover are the two things that decide whether one is worth buying.
Selling a GoPro in Los Angeles
Los Angeles runs on cars and on the entertainment industry, and both show up in what gets listed. Camera and lighting gear circulates here in a way it does almost nowhere else, and the climate means outdoor furniture and sports equipment stay usable year-round rather than spending half their life in a garage.
Distance is the real cost of a collection here, not the price. A seller on the other side of the basin can be ninety minutes each way in traffic, so most people arrange handovers on their own side of town and name a specific parking situation.
For camera and lighting gear, ask whether it came off a production and how heavily it was used. Rental-fleet equipment can be excellent value, but it has worked far harder than the hours suggest.
Los Angeles, in California, has around 3.9 million people, which means a buyer pool big enough that almost anything finds someone, and close enough together that collection is rarely the obstacle. San Diego, San Jose and San Francisco are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Los Angeles
USPS, UPS and FedEx all cover the country. USPS Ground Advantage is normally cheapest for anything under a few pounds in weight; above that the gap narrows quickly.

Is the lens cover scratched?
