I made the mistake of buying a camera from Photobox.It broke down and I returned it.They sent it back saying that there was nothing wrong with it. When it developed the same fault I sent it to Nikon uk, who repaired it. however it transpired that the camera was a grey import and not originally destined for the European market and as a result I had to pay the repair charges.After this incident i have beeb careful to buy equipment fron a recognised Nikon dealer even though it costs slightly more that the bargain basement grey importerd.
I bought a camera with 2 lens from camera box, when the lens went faulty i could not get in touch with them, customer service was none exsistant, they trade under quite a few names so go careful when buying from the net.
My cannon 60D has a fault now im just hoping mine is not an import as i have sent it back to cannon for fixing, this was purchased from camera box.
