I had a look online at the new regime and I think it will be closing again soon.

Only a few shops and the prices!!!

I wanted the Nikon 55-300mm so checked pricing - Jessops £280 + shipping compared to Amazon £164 post free

No contest

You can understand why our High Streets are suffering when Amazon, etc can give these prices.

A little while ago I bought a Memory stick online for £10.99 inc.P&P the local Argos had the same Item for £29.00, No contest as you say

No kidding!!! The only time I buy memory cards at a walk in store is at Staples & that's when I've collected enough bonus points from turning in used printer ink tanks that I ether don't need more ink (like that's going to happen) and I can pick up cards cheap.
