If you're looking to buy, sell or trade used photographic equipment of any type, with people who know what they're talking about, at good prices, then you've found the right place. Manchester's best camera shop, maybe even Britain's best camera shop? And if you think we might not do digital, then breathe easy, we do.
'There aren't many shops like this any more', and that's right, there aren't. I'd guess 80% of the used photo market happens online, mostly on eBay. But eBay's not so hot at offering advice or personal suggestions, or economic repairs, or small items that don't cost a fortune because they've got postage charges on top, and it can give you unpleasant surprise.
