I've been a member of the Fred Miranda Forums for over 20 years and do much of my Leica buying and selling there. The arrival of the Q3 43 has sent used prices for the other Q cameras straight down. Here's a 9+ Q3 for $5000. There's also listing for a like new Q3  for $5500. Q2Ms are well under $5000.

I looked locally, and a Q3 is going for CHF5200 (US$6180 as the Franc is so strong)

Give it a month and prices will go back up and stabilize. People are just “panic selling” to fund for the new Q3 43. Always happens with new releases and predecessors lens/bodies. If you are in a buyers market, the best time to pick up a used Q3 is now.

Very true. A bad time for selling is always a good time for buying.
