Excellent service and advice

I went in to the Newcastle shop wanting information about a new mirrorless camera. Richie gave a comprehensive overview of options and answered all my questions - he clearly knew the cameras in detail and was able to provide tailored advice, without doing an unwelcome hard sell on anything. As a result I had no hesitation going there again when I decided to buy, and the whole process of purchase and delivery was seamless. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic service as always from the London Camera Exchange. Incredibly fast and efficient service even during very busy holiday period with next day delivery arriving in time for Christmas. Everything was perfect. I highly recommend them for buying new or used camera gear. Many thanks. A+++++

Prompt service

Prompt service. Items exactly as described. And they were on the ball chasing up the couriers when they couldn't find the right address.

Give them a try before you buy.

John & the team impressed me with their product knowledge, friendly & good humoured customer service.
I received a fair price for my trade-in items against a new binocular & the whole experience was completed to my total satisfaction. I would be happy to recommend the Newcastle store to friends & family.
