ASMP/ NANPA Seattle/NW Gear Swap & Sale
- Looking to refresh your kit?
- Have gear collecting dust on your shelf?
- Searching for a great deal on a lens, camera, tripod, or lighting gear?
Join us for an in-person Gear Swap & Sale, a community-driven marketplace for photographers to buy, sell, and trade photo gear face-to-face.
This is a relaxed, open-space event where members and local photographers can connect, browse, and find new homes for well-loved equipment. Expect everything from cameras and lenses to film, lighting gear, accessories, and more.
For Those Who Want to Sell Gear
We’re offering a limited number of “seller” spaces for individuals who want to sell or trade their photography gear in person.
How it works:
- Sellers must sign up in advance to reserve a space; space is limited
- Each seller provides their own small table (up to 4 feet wide)
- After submitting the sign-up form, you’ll receive a confirmation email within 1–2 business days letting you know if your space is approved. Please only RSVP for one of these slots if you are 100% sure you can be there. If you do sign up and something changes please let the ASMP team know. Additional details are on the sign-up form below.
This is a great opportunity to:
- Clear out unused gear
- Meet other photographers in the community
- Avoid shipping fees and online marketplace hassles
