What makes one worth more or less?

Body only vs. with a lens: a working lens can be worth more than the body, so price them as what you actually have. A working light meter and accurate shutter speeds are what serious buyers check first. "Meter works" in a listing adds real money. Lens fungus, haze or separation lowers the price a lot. Look through it at a bright light.
