The EOS 100 never enjoyed the popularity of the lower-pitched EOS 1000 and it was discontinued in 1995.
As of 2008, EOS 100 bodies can be bought from on-line auction sites from as little as £10/$15.
Along with the T90, and other older Canon SLR film cameras, used EOS 100s can suffer from a 'sticky shutter' problem. This is caused by the camera's internal light sealing foam, which degrades over time and becomes stuck to the shutter, affecting exposures. This can affect the camera's resale value. The command dial is also prone to detachment from the electronic part of the dial, and many used EOS 100s are rendered unusable from this manufacturing flaw.
