The best choices (in my case) to sell Chinese lenses are:

  1. B&H Photo
  2. KEH
  3. MPB
  4. Adorama*

* Adorama did not provide me with an itemized estimate and insisted on shipping the lenses first before getting a quote. Keep in mind that I did all this a few months ago and the prices could be different today.
