I have used MPB twice to sell my camera and lens and both times has been a super service.My camera was collected Wednesday i could track it every inch of the way and it was safely delivered. .It was then checked and the money in my bank account on Monday lunchtime..This company gives you a fair deal and you cant ask for more.

I had rang the company on a couple of occasions not sure if I was doing the right thing, I had already purchased a Nikon D5100 from a different company, but wanted to sell my Canon equipment & purchase some Nikon equipment, I must say that the people I spoke to were very polite & understood my apprehension, I took the plunge & have not regretted my decision at all, they arranged everything, were very friendly & professional, I would use this company again without hesitation.
I have just bought from and sold to the company and have been impressed throughout by the courtesy and professionalism shown by Matt and his staff. The transactions were concluded very quickly with total honesty and fairness, excellent communications and speedy settlements. A pleasure to deal with and highly recommended. Thank you.
I just wanted to say how impressed I was with their service. I ordered my used lense on a Thursday afternoon and I received it on Friday mo
ing. The item was well packaged and was received in very good condition as described on their website. I used the lense over the JubiIee weekend and had very pleasing results. I will be buying from MPBPhotographic again and will recommend the company to others. A very big thank you to MPBPhotographic.
First time I'd ordered a second hand lens, I went to them purely because of the reviews I found on here and found them all to be correct. Delivery was next working day, communication was good and the item was exactly as described. I'll look on there first in future and won't hesistate to recommend them to my friends.
Can't praise them enough.
Did a PX on a camera I already had against some new kit. Collected my camera, quick turn around, shipped my new kit back to me in time for the bank holiday.
They were helpful, patient and informative all the way through even tolerating my relentless emailing to check on progress (I'm a bit of an impatient shopper), with great tact.
Kit arrived and it's almost perfect condition.
Would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to get shooting but didn't necessarily want to splash out on brand spanking kit.
Can I give more than 5 stars?
Top draw, fill you boots people.

I have purchased, sold and part exchanged with MPB and it is a painless and professional experience.
No hesitation reccomending them, prices are very good.

I sent an initial email to query two models of camera I was considering and received a response within the hour. From that sound advice I proceeded to call the company and further refine my thinking and spoke to a wonderful person called Kat!
Kat then advised and assisted me to the best camera for my particular situation so I felt fully comfortable, then guided me with my purchase.
The camera was delivered to my hands the next day and was exactly as described!
Wonderful company top quality staff, recommended to anyone looking for a camera to speak to this company first.

Sold them a bunch of Nikon stuff. As I live in same town dropped the equipment off at their premises. Met by Matt, quick check through the stuff and I was on my way. Money appeared in bank a couple of days later. Good email contact through the whole transaction. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get a quick fair price for their used equipment.
I sold a lens to MPB photographic, a process made easy even though the distance between us is great. Plenty of communication throughout the process. Safe hands
I was looking to sell my Canon 40d and having read loads of recent reviews about MPB photographic took a leap of faith and did an online evaluation. The price was competitive and the communication throughout the transaction was superb. They came to collect the camera using parcelforce and i was able to track it all the way back to MPB. I received emails to say it had arrived, condition was agreed and payment was in my account two days later. I would definitely recommend this company and would not hesitate to use them in the future.
I ordered a 18-55mm Kit Lens after buying a body only. At first I didn't realise it wasn't IS until I had it of course. I asked kindly if they could exchange it and allow me to pay the difference, unfortunately this could not be the case, BUT. And a big BUT. They offered me a great price for it anyway, with free pick up service. Not only that, I work everywhere and anywhere, yet, they offered to pick it up from a place of work. Even better knowing I had a full day in one place.
No problems with the return, money paid into bank. Done. I was also offered free delivery on my next order.
Emails were replied to within at least a couple of hours. If not quicker. Have bought a few things from them, would recommend them and will 100% use them in the future.
The whole process of selling my equipment was really excellent. From initial email to the final payment. All carried out via email and at no expense whatsoever to myself.
Received my Sigma 120 - 400 lens, very pleased with the lens. the description was spot on.
Wasn't that impressed with Parcel Force their 24hr delivery turned out to be 48hrs
Bought a nikkor 18-200 vr2 from them, but unfortunately an issue appeared during the delivery, then i got contact with them instantly. They offered exchange or refund. now i'm getting refund including postage fees. Andy replied every email within 10 minutes!
can't imagine any better costum service in online business, they are the best.
first choice for next time purchasing.
I'm normally hesitant with 2nd hand purchases, but the camera I bought from MBP was well priced and in excellent condition. Would recommend to all.
Recently changed my photo equipment to Nikon - was going to (in fact i had listed) old equipment on e### . I thought i may as well get a quote for selling direct. Went to MPB for a quote and was pleasantly surprised by their quote (more than my e### listing) !!! Cancelled my listing and dealt direct. MPB arranged for the old kit to be picked up by courier (all i had to do was package securely). Kit went off last thursday and by monday evening the funds were in my account. Brilliant service - safe secure and above all an honest company i would trust. Bit pat on the back to Matt and his staff.
Am very please with my Sigma 10-20mmHSM, having part exchanged my 17-70mm, will gladly continue to use them in the future.
I part exchanged a Canon EOS 400D for a Canon 550D.
All levels of communication with this company are quick and professional.
It took five days from initial contact to receiving the exchanged camera.
Refreshing to see a company dedicated to giving 100% customer satisfaction.
I will defiantly purchase from this company again.
100% Highly recommend MPB Photographic

I sent for a Nikon D3000 and lens for my grandaughter as a 16th birthday present and was amazed at the service and value. After a very prompt reply to a technical question I ordered the goods at about 3.30pm and received them the next day, as promised. In an age where we are very wary of poor Internet service this company shines. I would recommend MPB to anyone who wants quality used goods efficiently and at a very reasonably price.
I have bought several items, worth a considerable amount from MPB. The item descriptions are spot on. The service is prompt and courteous.
Fantastic service - price agreed quickly and a very good trade in that enabled me to upgrade my camera. Courier collection an integral part of a very high level of service. A pleasure dealing with this Company
I had been pondering a camera upgrade for a while, and was initially tempted by the prospect of buying and selling on e-bay or other trading website.
However, after watching price trends for a while I realised there was little between any deal on the net and what I was offered by MPB.
Add to that the warranty and free postage that came with the transaction, it was a no-brainer.
Matt and his staff were helpful and courteous throughout.
I will look there first for my next photographic purchase.
Rang to enquire about first SLR. Was surprised to find that the person who ansered the phone was helpful, patient and knowledgeable. I ended up buying straight away. Camera was a "used" one. It arrived next day, as promised, in better condition than described on the website and functioning perfectly. Even came with 6 months guarantee, which is reassuring when buying something 2nd hand for a fair amount of money.
It's rare to find such a professional and personal service. They'll be my first stop in the future.
I have recently sold all of my camera kit as I no longer use it.
So glad I found MPB.
Such a fast,reliable and efficient service.

many thanks to the staff at mpb photographic, ive just upgraded from a bridge camera to a dslr and as a newbie i was looking for a lens that i could use for wildlife. i searched in google search and this company was listed so i clicked on it and hey presto there was a lens, i emailed them to see if it was compatable with the nikon body i had, they replied within a few hours, i then rung them up and they spoke to me in a polite and profesional maner. The next day the lens didnot arive due to the delivery lorry braking down, but appolergised on their behalve, and it arived the next day. the item was as described on the web site and i was very happy with the service i recived from the company. i would highly recomend them and would be going straight to them again before any one else. well done mpb
Thank you to MPB Photographic for a wonderful service. I purchased a Nikon D70 for my young daughter who has recently discovered photography and the swift arrival of this camera has only served to fuel the passion!!
I have used the company again to buy a lens for her which arrived the next day, well packaged.
Great service and products
Thank you
It was the first time I have bought a lens on line as I always favored viewing them personally before making a purchase. I took the plunge with MPB Photographic and can honestly say the service I received was great. The web site is well laid out and easy to navigate around with clear information about the lenses/equipment on offer. Having spoken to a female representative on the phone regarding this purchase I found her friendly and professional. I was emailed promptly, the lens arrived intact, well packaged and the next day. Fantastic. I will on that basis recommend you to others and would use your services again.
I was a bit nervous about sending three reasonably valuable lenses to a company that I hadn't worked with, but the team reassured me and I agreed to part exchange the lenses for a Canon L 24-105 zoom. I was extremely pleased to receive an email to say that the lenses I sent had arrived, and that they had agreed the condition as stated. The exchange lens arrived the next day, and was every bit as good as it was described to be. I will spend more time with the lens this weekend, but initial images are very encouraging. The company have been excellent in every aspect of the trade, and are highly recommended.
excellent and efficient service coupled with promt payment,
i would definately use this company again if I need to sell
equipment in the future

First time user, but was aware of MPB's growing reputation.
Great service, order yesterday afternoon and parcelforce delivered a securely packaged D200 at 8.30 this morning, despite the snow!
Will certainly return in the future.

I purchased a new DSLR a few months back, and after finding the kit lenses ok, but not exactly what i was after i wanted to upgrade.
Around the same time i joined a photography forum online and was recommended MPB.
I part exchanged one of my lenses for a good price, and was left very impressed by them.
Matt in particular was excellent! courier came to pick up my lens at no cost to myself, and the new (but used) lens duly followed a few days later.
Only problem was my new lens arrived without a lens hood as stated, but Matt sorted this out immediately and a hood was sent out by courier.
I wouldn't hesitate recommending MPB, this is what all companys should aspire to be like.
Upgraded and changed from nikon to canon, got a good price for my camera and lens, sorted out a good px for a canon lens and the extra was paid to my account sameday. all picked up and delivered by courier at no extra cost. Cant beat it.
Excellent service and good communications, if you have any camera or lens needs these are the people that will fulfill them.
I recently sold my beloved Canon 40d with various lenses to MPB Photographic and I received a very reasonable price for the goods.
The exchange went through quickly with no issues and I will certainly use the company again in the future. I will be saving for a 5D and will be checking back soon.
Many thanks to Matt and his team.

I Recently purchased a used Nikon D700 camera from the company. Super fast delivery, well packaged and the camera is in excellent condition.
I would highly recommend MPB to anyone and I hope to do future business with them.
The first photograph taken with the D700 is posted below.

This was the first time I have used MPB (and won't be the last!) and couldn't fault the service offered.
Initally contacting them to sell a redundant lens, the price quoted, the speed of the transaction process was excellent. Half way through the process I decided to change from a sell to PX on a camera body, and nothing was too much trouble. The item was received the next day, and condition was exactly as discribed.
I have now recommended them to a number of people and only wish there was more companies out there who offer a service as good as theirs!
This is the second occasion I have sold equipment to MPB. Matt Barker was my email contact. I was extremely pleased with the prompt and practical exchange of information leading to the sale. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from or sell to MPB again.
