What do you base that on? Have you got any statistics to support this?

Also, value of second hand CCD Astro cameras is somewhat dependant on the brand as some brands do not devalue as much as others. SBIG cameras seem to hold their value for an extended time as does FLI particularly because of the high standard of construction.
