Peter, I would think using an older slide duplicator attachment on a digital camera would work for 'basic' type stuff. I wouldn't expect any kind of high quality work from it. You will find that many front attachments will not physically fit the newer cameras that have bulges in front. A good slide scanner is several hundred to a few thousand $ so using a $50 duplicator will give you what you paid for.
Selling photo stuff is pretty much a ebay thing now with only a few regional camera shows left.. Just like trains some people will pay good money for what some people consider junk. Other times you have some neat stuff and nobody wants it. I would suspect that the film loader and slide mounts are pretty much landfill items, unfortunately. Several years ago Nikon gave away a Polaroid instant processor for a line of 35mm film when you bought a Nikon camera. The retail price was about $100 and I produced some interesting 'art' type work. The last time I checked ebay you couldn't sell them for $1. This digital thing has taken over the mainstream faster than Nikon, Kodak and I thought it would. Everybody had product in the production lines as really good digital was taking root. Very much like those fine steam engines from Lima in the later years still being useful but not needed. I still have two 35mm film cameras, 2 view cameras, and two specialty cameras plus film for all. I keep saying someday, I'll do a trip and use it all up--perhaps wishful thinking.
