Used Fujifilm GFX100RF Appeared (at Reasonable Price) at BHphoto – but Elsewhere Highly Overpriced

Earlier today you could find the first second hand Fujifilm GFX100RF cameras available at BHphoto at a reasonable price.

But not everybody simply returns their GFX100RF.

In fact, some just resell it highly overpriced online, for example for $7,000 as you can see from the screenshot here.

And this will only get worse in future, with the GFX100RF shipments put on pause due to tariffs (this is an official statement of Fujifilm made to PetaPixel, so I am not making this up.
