Anybody familiar with or done business with MBP? I am quite comfortable with B&H, Adorama and KEH but not mbp. Reviews appear to be generally positive, but I thought I would check here. Thanks in advance.

bought from them several times no problem
Have looked on their site a couple of times for items I wanted, but they didn't have them. Ultimately went to ebay & CL. If they have what you want go for it. I have heard nothing negative about them.

Only saw this place recently on another thread.
Interface looks a bit like KEH, which I have used quite a bit and trust.

No experience yet but did see a full page ad of theirs in PhotoPlus, a UK Canon magazine FWIW.

Looked there for some items, but MBP did not have what I wanted in stock.
They are a UK company trying to ‘cross the pond’ and do business here in ‘the colonies’.

Hi Oldpsych!
I live in the UK -- I've dealt with them several times -- to buy and sell and have found them fair and honest. Buy or PX with confidence. Go safe Dick.

Bought a lens from them a few months ago. It arrived on time and was as advertised. I will buy from them again if they have what I want at a price I think is fair.

Bruce, with the utmost respect, if you are familiar with reputable stores like B&H, Adorama and KEH why would you want to buy from someone else?

No disrespect taken. Just trying to cover my bases. Waiting for B&H and Adorama to reply (after the Jewish Holiday).

I have bought from them as well as sold to them. I actually visited them at their NYC office. They are reputable in my opinion. They ship quickly, items arrive as stated in their write ups and their prices can be lower than others. They don’t have as many items as the “big” guys but if they have what you need I wouldn’t hesitate to try them.
