Where these cameras are posted from
Prices from outside the UK include about 20% import VAT. Over £135 the courier may add a handling fee, and customs duty can apply. Work out the full cost with the import cost calculator.
A * after the working status means it comes from the seller's description, not the title.
Before you buy a used Autocord
- The focus lever can crack: check focusing is smooth.
- Check the shutter speeds and lens haze.
- Shine a torch through the taking lens with the back open: look for haze, fungus and separation.
- Check every shutter speed and that the crank stops at each frame.
- Pay through eBay. eBay's Money Back Guarantee covers a camera that doesn't work as described, but only if you pay through eBay. Our used film camera checklist has the tests to do the day it arrives.
Battery: None needed. The shutter works without one. Battery finder →
Questions buyers ask
How much is a used Autocord worth?
On eBay UK today a tested / working Minolta Autocord typically costs £358 delivered. These are asking prices, so many sell for a little less, especially with Best Offer.
Is it cheaper to buy a Autocord from Japan?
21 of the 26 Minolta Autocord listings on eBay UK right now are posted from Japan. Japanese dealers grade cosmetic condition carefully ("Near Mint", "Exc+5"), but you pay import VAT and sometimes a courier fee, and returns take longer. All the prices on this page already include the VAT estimate.
What battery does the Autocord take?
None needed. The shutter works without a battery; it only powers the meter.
Is a tested Autocord worth paying more for?
Right now tested examples are listed at about £96 (21%) less than ones where the seller doesn't say. A film-tested camera is the safest buy: an untested one can need a service costing £60 to £150.
What should I check before buying a used Autocord?
The focus lever can crack: check focusing is smooth. Check the shutter speeds and lens haze.
Are these sold prices?
No, they're asking prices from live eBay listings, refreshed daily. We record the daily typical price, so the history chart shows how asking prices move.
