Bought a Fuji HS30EXR. Excellent service, prompt delivery and kept up to date with emails from Buyacamera and the delivery company. The camera was, as requested, a UK product and very well packaged. Added to which they offered the best price on the internet. Will not hesitate to recommend.

I purchased a Nikon 55-200mm VR lens. Buyacamera were very helpful in changing the delivery to be Royal Mail (so I could pick up from local depot) and the product was as described & delivered quickly.

“Recent camera purchase ”
Written on: 24/03/2013
Just to let you know that the camera was delivered this morning around 10 a.m. and I must say I’m most impressed with the service I received, both on line dealing with the purchase and with the speed of delivery. I did look at other camera suppliers, but chose you as you are UK based and not offering ‘grey’ imports for sale. Once again great service and I’m looking forward to using my camera in the future. I would recommend you to others if they are looking for cameras etc. (read more)

Buyacamera.co.uk provided an excellent service at a very competitive price. After placing my order I was sent an e-mail advising that the chosen camera was out of stock but another delivery was expected the next day and my camera would be one day late, I was given the choice to change/cancel the order but decided that to wait one extra day was a small price to pay for the deal I was getting. I was kept upto date with the progress despatching my order, and when the camera arrived it was... (read more)

Having read a Which report for compact digital cameras in which the Nikon Coolpix P310 came top, I set about researching the best site to buy one from.

Written on: 15/02/2013
A really good buy from from buyacamera-co.uk. This is a bridge camera which will suit my needs adequately, although I have yet to give it a really good try-out. The review I read before purchasing gave 4 out of 5 star rating. The cost from buyacamera was by far the lowest I have come across on the Internet. I must mention that it was a white box purchase, which means it was a camera that had been returned from a retailer, inspected, and re-boxed as new, with all accessories. I ... (read more)

Had doubts about buying a 'white box' product. The guys at Buy a camera explained just what a white box purchase was.
