Fantastic service as always from the London Camera Exchange. Incredibly fast and efficient service even during very busy holiday period with next day delivery arriving in time for Christmas. Everything was perfect. I highly recommend them for buying new or used camera gear. Many thanks. A+++++

Prompt service. Items exactly as described. And they were on the ball chasing up the couriers when they couldn't find the right address.

Reply from London Camera Exchange - Newcastle
Very satisfactory transaction
Very satisfactory transaction. Accurate information, helpful staff member and a quick despatch. All straightforward. Unfortunately I can't say the same for the delivery company, who got my address wrong! I had to phone to correct it. In the end the item arrived on time, due in no small part to the driver, who had to work through the atrocious weather during Friday's storm. My congratulations to him.
