Has anyone used this site for used gear and are they trustworthy?
I just sprung a few dollars for an older lens.
Figure if they are not reliable I'm only out a little bit as opposed to buying a body from them.
They do have a six month warranty on used gear at least.

Have not personally dealt with them, but only read good reports from others.

Bought a lens from them some time ago. Lens was as advertised or better, price was fait, I thought. Well satisfied.

MPB.com is a UK company based in Brighton and now have a base in the US. I have used them many times and have never experienced a problem. MPB is a genuine company offering excellent prices and very quick delivery.
MPB is 100% reliable quite unlike some of the US used camera equipment I have heard about, so go ahead and spend your money with them.

I’ve dealt with them several times and have been very pleased with the experience.

Don't worry. Good company to deal with.

I have used MPB on more than one occasion in order to purchase high quality, secondhand lenses and will continue to do so. Excellent service and value.

I sold my Nikon 18-200mm and bought the 16-80mm lens (advertised as "like new") through mpb. Very happy with the transaction. And the lens :-)

cmcaroffino Loc: Sebring, FL

Have both bought and sold several camera bodies and lens and was satisfied each time. They are the first place I go to when looking for a used camera or lens.

I’ve bought from mpb and sold to mpb and have always been satisfied.
