A perfect service. After doing the usual online homework, trying to find out which would be the best travel lens for my holidays, I decided on the Sigma 18-250 DC Macro.
I then needed to find out what price I could get it for. Locally it was going to cost £379 but not in stock with a 1-2 day wait.
I had already googled it and cliftoncameras.co.uk were near the top of the results list. With a price of £319!
I phoned Clifton Cameras and was told that there was 1 in stock, he even went to check, and confirmed there was one.
I said that I would complete the transaction online (as it was closing time for the shop). And was told that he woud put my name on it.
So I made the order online. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they accept PayPal and dispatch for next day delivery. I received an automated email confirming my order details and was informed that I will receive a link to track my order when it has been dispatched.
I realised that I'd made a mistake and needed it to be delivered a day later, so emailed to let them know.
This was no problem and their communication and service were excellent, freindly and helpful.
I would highly recommend Clifton Cameras to anyone.
I got exactly what I needed, when I needed it, not to mention the £60 I saved.
I have had the lens a few days now and I'm also very pleased with it. This will be the one that spends most time mounted to my Sony a77, until I need to get serious...... ;-)
