I would like to start my review by saying that Camera Centre UK is one of the best online stores for buying cameras (and any other photographic equipment) in the United Kingdom.
The company was established back in 2003 and it quickly became one of the best online stores in its field. You will be able to find all sorts of goods there, from professional DSLR cameras or binoculars to photo frames or video game consoles .
It's worth mentioning that Camera Centre UK offers many different advantages compared to standard brick and mortar shops. Firstly, they offer better prices than their competition because they don't have an expensive shop-front with rent, salesperson salaries etc. Secondly, most of products sold by them are kept at their own Warehouse, so they will have them in stock even if it is a rare or discontinued model. Thirdly, they offer free shipping within UK and a vast majority of their products are eligible for FREE delivery, which saves you a lot of money!
Their customer support is available from 9:00 to 18:00 from Monday to Friday, though sometimes they can be offline because of technical problems with their system. In my experience Camera Centre UK's customer representatives don't know much about cameras and photographic equipment but you can always give them a call if you're looking for any models that might not appear on their website.
Here are some pros and cons regarding this online store:
Pros:
- Very good prices; - Free delivery within UK; - Good availability of products even for discontinued items;
Cons:
- Usually, their customer support doesn't know too much about cameras.
I hope you enjoyed reading about Camera Centre UK! If you would like me to review any other online stores (or other websites) let me know in the comments below and I will make an article about them.
