Hi Linda and team

I have recently placed an order with you for another Canon lens–this was after a previous order placed last year.

My experience in trading with you has been first class.

You do what you say you will and by when which is exactly what I like and also it keeps faith in a very competitive market.

Everything about the transaction was spot onand professional–from the initial contact, to taking payment, to your order process and final delivery to my house–all within the timescales advised.

Thank you for all that you do and have done for me.

Iam sure I will be in touch again although as you know we are heading off to New Zealand to start a new life over there.

At least we know where you are and as such will always contact you for my camera needs as even with the postal charges, I feel it will still be a lot cheaper than buying locally.

Good luck to you all in the future and thanks for you assistance thus far.

Kind regards

Martin Butler

Just wanted to let you know that the Lens turned up as expected yesterday.
Thank you again for the excellent service which truly makes a difference
these days. Having previously purchased the Canon 100-400mm L lens from you
, I didn't hesitate to buy the 24-105mm L from you - the offer of 3%
discount plus a free Hoya filter as well as your excellent service made it a
very easy choice. I will certainly be ordering my next piece of Photographic
equipment from you.

Just to let you know that the lens turned up as expected today and I am
delighted with it. I shall be out this weekend capturing wildlife images.

This is the first time I have ordered from yourselves and I must say how
impressed I am at the way you responded quickly to my queries and kept me
informed. Although the lens took a little longer to arrive than I had
expected , your service has been excellent and I certainly expect to buy
from you again.

I especially like the way you pass on the 3% discount for not using credit
cards - very unusual and most welcome in this current climate.

Hi Linda,

I'm extremely pleased with the lens, which you offered at a better price
than any other supplier I could find. I was very impressed with the quality
of your service: it was personal, courteous and very prompt.

I just wanted to thank you guys personally as my order has now arrived exactly when you said it would. It has been a pleasure to deal with a company that has a face to it rather than a huge multinational where your order is just another number.
 
I was very grateful that you were willing to split my order so that the items you had in stock were delivered promptly and i was able to receive them in person rather than having expensive lenses waiting at a sorting office.
 
Your prices are excellent and thanks to your great customer service I would not hesitate to buy from you again.

"I have now ordered two lenses from Martin's Camera Shop, a Nikon 70-300mm and a Sigma 12-24mm. In both cases I took advantage of additional 3% discount offered for cheque payment with order. Their pricing is very competitive and the service I received has been prompt, helpful and courteous. I have no hesitation in recommending Martin's as an internet supplier and will certainly come back for my next lens once funds permit."

"Thanks for all your help - it is a pleasure to deal with a supplier who is large enough to offer good prices, yet small enough that odd requests are no problem and the person answering the phone has an idea who the customer is!"

"I have recently purchased a Canon 70-200mm F4 L IS lens from Martins Camera shop. This was the first time I have used the shop and like other contributors I was a little worried as I was parting with a lot of money. When I placed the order I was told that the lens was not in stock, and delivery could be up to 10 working days. I also double checked the quoted price with them as other quotes I had received from reputable UK suppliers were a lot more expensive, and was assured that they would hold the price quoted to me. This they did,and the lens arrived very well packaged on working day 9. The communication by e mail was excellent. Overall I would rate the buying experience from Martins Camera shop as excellent. I have just ordered a Hoya filter to go with my new lens."

"I have just purchased a Nikon 80-400mm lens from Martins Cameras.Not having used them before, I was a little nervous – it was a lot of dosh.
However, while it wasn’t in stock, it was obtained very quickly (about 4-5 working days), the predicted delivery date was accurate and the promises were kept.
Good customer service and good prices.
I shall return."

"Ordered a Canon 100-400mm F4L. Martins was the best price on the internet and this was my first purchase from them, so admittedly I was a little hesitant, but was reassured by the reviews I had read both here and elsewhere. I paid by bank-transfer to get a further discount over paying by credit-card (its impressive they pass this saving on!). Whilst order fulfillment was a little longer than Im used to for internet stores (around 7 days in total), during this time, all my e-mails were very promptly and helpfully responded to by the Martins staff and the ETA I was given up-front was accurate. The item that arrived was excellent and I was also able to claim the Canon cashback rebate, further adding to the savings. All in all, I was very satisfied with my purchase!"

"Bought a Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM lens from here April 08. Missed their 10 working day delivery estmate but when I rang to check (on working day 10, was keen to get the lens!) were very polite, checked the order and said the lens had come in that day and would go out tomorrow, and indeed it was dispatched the next day and turned up (very well packed) the day after. Good experience, will use them again. "

"I was a bit hesitant to use this supplier having not heard of them before.

However I decided to take the risk and ordered a Canon EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS USM; which being an expensive bit of kit, gave me a few second-thoughts once Id hit the submit button....

Glad to say I was kept updated with excellent (and apologetic) communications to inform me of a SLIGHT delay prior to the lens availability, which Im happy to say did arrive on the date advised (Cameras2U & Microglobe - take note!)

Excellent experience all round - more than likely will use again."
