While you’re at it, add Hunt’s to your list! Awesome store and stellar reputation.

I have dealt with Roberts for 30 years and have never had a bad experience. They are always friendly and helpful.

Nothing new to add...Roberts and Used are top notch. Jody at Roberts/Nelson at Used.

You should put a link in for those of us unable to visit. On the rare occasions I've not been able to purchase from a U.K. store, I've used B&H, but a link would be useful.

They are a great store to deal with. Last year I purchased a used Tamron 150-600 G2, got a super deal, and it was impossible to tell that it was used.

Great service especially from Hanna in used cameras. She went above and beyond to make things right

I just got a used Fuji X100T from Roberts. The charger that came with it was bad. They opened a new charger in front of me (I think it had a $99.99 price tag on it), handed me the brand new Fuji charger, not some third party inexpensive one, and told me to let them know if it solved my problem, which it did.

Be careful who you buy from, and put Roberts/Used Photo Pro on the approved list!


That's fantastic service, I must admit. A brand new battery charger, from a used camera purchase.

To repeat myself, that is the difference between a reputable and non reputable dealer. I have bought from them used with total satisfaction...and 6 months warranty.

A little disappointed with last purchase from B&H. Got a refurb 70-300 Nikor and when it arrived it was literally rattling around in a cardboard box. The packaging was one layer of bubble wrap and two of the larger pillows which did nothing to keep the lens secure. The second package which contained a lens hood and a UV filter had three pillows, bubble wrap and a half pound of tape. I question their shipping department but not the quality of their products and service.

1. how do the contents of the packages perform??

2. how did B&H respond when you contacted them??

I'm lucky I live 15 minutes from both Roberts stores, always professional and they do what they say. I just dropped a few Benjamins there Friday.

I did not, and will not, contact them. The lens was fine and if it hadn't been they would have replaced it. I always take a photo of all boxes at time of opening just for my records. My D7200 came in a small box placed inside a larger box with no packaging. Seems to work for them and if and when I have a problem I will contact them. My original post was not a criticism, just an observation.
