I'm selling my Canon Vixia G10 video camera. The camera was purchased new in December 2011 from B&H for $1,200. Selling it for $800, shipping included. This is a little less than what I'd get for the camera on eBay, but obviously would prefer to sell without going through them. The camera is in perfect operating condition with the usual small scuffs from use. Comes with original box and charger cable.
I no longer need the Vixia G10 because I am replacing my main Sony HDR-FX1 this weekend with a new camera. The FX1 is 8 years old and is near the end of its useful life, so I bought the Vixia G10 as a backup in case the FX1 failed. I ended up using the Vixia as my primary chasing camera this past year as it has a much higher picture quality than my FX1.

Edit to add more info:
The battery is the stock battery that came with the camera. It has been lasting roughly an hour (an hour of constant recording) on full charge. I have used it on entire chases without having to recharge, though I usually only record for a few minutes at a time. If you're shooting long timelapses, you'd probably want to get an extra battery and memory card. The camera has 32GB of internal memory and two SD card slots for additional capacity. I've always had it set to record in the highest quality, and have never come close to using all of the internal memory, so I never bought extra SD cards for it.
The camera came with only the battery, charger cable, lens hood/cap and a small remote. I didn't buy any extra accessories for it. I still have the original box that everything came in.
