An excellent purchase. The camera was described as almost mint and it certainly was near perfect and all the extras were in great shape. I have been considering one of these expensive cameras for a wh... See more

Highly recommended!

Very easy to use website. The camera and lens I purchased was very accurately described, and from experience elsewhere would say Peter's gradeings are two categories lower, so you will not be disappointed.
Item well packed. All round excellent service and highly recommended.

I have brought many items from Peter…

I have brought many items from Peter Loy because he is trustworthy and reliable. Peter always updates his stock listings with new and exciting items and his grading is very accurate.

I enjoy buying from Peter Loy

I enjoy buying from Peter Loy, and this time was no exception - a fine Voigtlander strut folding camera. The grading is very conservative, the camera is in very fine condition, and price competitive. Fast shipping and carefully packed. Recommended without hesitation.

Conservative gradings and trustworthy

I have bought from Peter many times over the past 10 years or so, as well as ebay and othe shops. Peter Loy's gradings are FAR more Conservative than others. Every purchase has exceeded my expectations and I have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

Peter Loy proved a model of eCommerce

Peter Loy proved a model of eCommerce. Packaging excellent, delivery prompt and paperwork thorough. And, despite this age of cold computer screens, friendliness and courtesy throughout our transaction. A good guy to do business with.

Vintage cameras paradise.

Peter has a wide selection of old cameras on sale (not only Leicas) displayed on the company’s frequently updated website. He runs a very competent and reliable mail order service. Grading is extremely conservative.
