Adorama

Just wanted to say after two purchases from Adorama it has been 10 out of 10 experience. The second was a used Canon 14mm f2/8 L ll that saved me $800. The glass was rated an " E" and was exactly that when it arrived and is hard to discern from new.

I have been burned in the past from other sellers but I would like to put a very positive word out for Adorama for anyone wanting to purchase "used".

Adorama currently is evaluating my 800E for a price quote.
I fully expect to be low-balled; but that is their business.
My choice to accept a low offer, or not.

Have had good responses from Adorama and plenty of fine products. No issues here.

That's quite a compliment to Adorama. And living in Norway adds to it. I buy mostly from B&H, and share the same compliments to them. Adorama has been used by me, when others are out of stock. A savings of $800 on your excellent Canon lens is satisfying, to anyone. Enjoy it.

They want to make 100% profit on your trade in. It doesn't bother me it's their business and it's the same over at B&H Photo. I went to my local camera shop and traded they gave me $100 more than B&H would have. I've had good luck with local people on Crags list selling about $200 under B&H used price.

I have been buying from B&H and Adorama for many years and never had a problem with either.
