I bought a Mamiya C330 and it has performed exactly how I would expect it too. The price was good for the many examples I have seen in the past. The buying process was very simple and I received the... See more

A great service, I found a second hand Canon EF 2X III Extender, that I was told later had only just come in to the shop, and ordered it, albeit after 2pm so it wouldn't be next day delivery. The e... See more

Responsive and helpful

Responsive when I had a query about the product. And then happy to have it delivered to a different LCE store for me to collect once I bought it.

Came into LCE's Exeter store regarding fixing my broken camera. They diagnosed the issue to be the board inside related to interfacing with the battery. Since the fix would cost more than an entire replacement we looked at their stock to find that Newcastle had one for a great price. Picked up a used replacement body and lens and am very happy!

Superb experience

Superb experience. Johnny and the team were knowledgeable, flexible, non-pressuring and helpful. So much easier than endlessly scouring the Web for non-fake reviews and clear comparisons. Thank you!

Excellent service from the Newcastle team for a recent mail order enquiry and subsequent purchase relating to a used item. Additional pictures supplied in answer to initial queries. Fast delivery after placing order. Arrived nicely packed and well protected for shipment.

Excellent service

I spoke to a knowledgeable and helpful person in the Nottingham branch who suggested it would be faster and cheaper to replace my camera body than to send it for repair. He checked stock and told me the Newcastle branch had a second hand one available . I went online and ordered it and it arrived next day, free delivery.
I’ve now got a working camera to take on holiday! Couldn’t be happier.

A fast response when contacted by filling in the online enquiry form. Friendly and knowledgable staff, that were very helpful. Fast shipment of my secondhand purchase that came with a couple of bonus items I was not expecting. Recommended by my father that has used LCE for many years whilst working as a professional photographer and studio owner. I would highly recommend LCE for a first class frinedly service.

Looks like new

Bought a second hand Nikon D700. The camera was delivered on time well wrapped. The camera appears in very good condition in the original box with all the leads and charger. There was also two instruction manuals. It looks new. Would definitely buy from them again.
