Guidance on purchasing used cameras

Tokyo CAMERA is a store where people who love cameras gather. We recommend that you handle your camera with care, whether it's a camera you remember or a camera that is broken and no longer works. Of course, we also take responsibility for handing over old cameras that have been used with care by enthusiasts to the next owner.


  • Our staff, who are familiar with classic cameras, carefully assess the value of the camera that our customers have treasured and present an appraised price.
  • Tokyo CAMERA is a shop where young and female camera enthusiasts gather. Once purchased, the cameras are maintained and displayed in stores, where they are passed on to the next generation.


Film camera purchase process

Purchase flow Step1

Please call us during business hours.
At that time, it will go smoothly if you let us know your desired date and time for the purchase appraisal, as well as the make and model of the camera.

Purchase flow Step 2

If you purchase at a store, we will pay you in cash on the spot.
If you are not satisfied with the purchase price, you can take the camera home. We do not charge any money for the purchase appraisal, so please feel free to visit us.

Purchase flow Step 3

If you have a number of old cameras but don't want to have them appraised at a store because they are too heavy, please consider purchasing them on-site or having them delivered to your home.
Please rest assured that our female staff will also be on hand.

Why Tokyo CAMERA?

Our store is a store specializing in cameras. Since the cameras we purchase are refurbished and sold at stores, we do not take any intermediate margins.

We have staff members who love old cameras all the time, so we approach all cameras with the same feelings, observing the ``taste'' and ``expression'' that each old camera has.

For on-site purchasing, our female staff will visit your home. You can use our purchasing service with peace of mind as we only visit your front door.

The camera I purchased is sold at the store, so I can pass on my cherished camera to the younger generation of camera enthusiasts. It is Tokyo CAMERA's mission to pass on attractive old cameras to the next generation.

Whether it's a regular camera or an old imported camera such as a Leica, we approach the purchase appraisal in the same way. We have created an environment where women and elderly people can visit our store with peace of mind, so if you have an old camera at home that you are not using, please contact us.
