MPB usually provide a brilliant service and it’s why I’ve used them for so long. I sold a camera and lens combo to them recently and they upgraded the quote value once they had inspected the gear. T... See more

Couldn't be happier
Just completed a transaction of selling a camera and buying a lens. Couldn't be happier how it went; the price I got for my camera and the lens I was buying. So thankful for MPB.
After a previous trading experience…
After a previous trading experience with a well known company , gave me the feeling of being ripped off.
I thought to give MPB a go the they was good, there quote was good and the final price was more than the original price.
So I am very happy with MPB thanks.
Trustworthy company
I entered into the sale of a redundant camera with some suspicion as to the sending it away for a remote purchase.
However I was pleased that the transaction went through smoothly and I would happily recommend the company.
From start to finish the entire transaction was catered for and I was kept informed.

I have dealt with MPB on many occasions both to buy and sell gear. I have, without exception, found them to be efficient, honest and transparent. Highly recommended.
Great price
Great price, highly efficient, even added a bit to the original quote ( who does that!). This is a good, straight, reliable company.

I recently sold a bulk collection of camera body and lenses, and the experience was excellent. Communication was clear and transparent from start to finish. While the initial quote was fair, I was pleasantly surprised when they re-evaluated my gear and increased the price by €100 after inspection. The entire process—from collection to funds hitting my account took just 7-8 days. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a smooth, professional, and hassle-free sale.
Fast and convenient

Great service once again from the go too for used kit.
Sigma 24-135mm f2.8 lens. Brilliant bit of kit and extremely good prices. Swift shipping and just a wonderful company to deal with

I am glad I ignored the doom-mongers on Reddit, don't take any notice. My experience of MPB is all very good, not perfect, more about that later. The camera and lens arrived a day early, From Germany to Croatia. DHL handed the package to HR Posta, the Croatian postal service, who are second to none.
Both the camera and the lens are in first rate condition, I have tested both. The packaging was very good, the camera and lens very safe, this brings me to the one minor issue; the lens hood was jammed on the lens, it hadn't been reversed properly. It took some patience to part hood and lens. The hood clicks on perfectly in work position, but takes some fiddling to click home when reversed. Whether this was inherent out of the factory, or heavy handed use by a previous owner, but it works ok. I do think the person packing the items should have taken a little more time, or asked for help. Really a very minor issue, though.
Will buy again
Prompt delivery, full transparancy regarding the state of the equipment, well packed. Great quality for the cost.

Dealt with MPB a few times now and have complete faith in their honest appraisal of camera gear on the used market. Quick to respond and not once did I feel I was being treated unfairly. I’ll certainly use their services again.
