Hello,

I want to publicize this shop

http://www.mxv.co.uk/

In Ebay they are mxvphoto05.

They are wonderful! Really!

I was looking for Bronica SQ-A stuff and firstly I searched in ebay. I found some interesting items in their account and from there I passed to their website. Here I found a Bronica wonderland. There are a lot of other stuff but they seem specialized in medium format. Unfortunately in the website they don't show photos of the items and they cannot email them. So I phoned asking to describe the condition of the items I were interested in. They took them off the shelf and described me very precisely their condition.
So I bought. Even if they don't publicize in the website, they accept Paypal if you take all the costs.
I ordered from Italy Jan, 6th, the goods were shipped the day after and they arrived today Jan, 9th.
The condition of the items is better than I thought and the evaluation they give is absolutely right or maybe worse than real. Prices are absolutely fair if not really cheap (at least for the stuff I was looking for).
I think they are really good seller.

Yes, I must agree. I found their site (didn't know they are on eBay as well) and visited their shop in Uckfield. Very nice people (we communicated via e-mails for couple of days ago just before I visited them) the condition of the item(s) I bought was perfect. I MEAN perfect although the site said good condition I bought brand new flashgun and when I looked at it just from curiosity I asked if they had another one and laughed because I didn't expect them to have one. Guess what, they had so I took that one as well. The price was just excellent. I bought the two flashguns for a price for which I could get only one on eBay.
If it wasn't that far from where I live I would come to visit them (and for shopping) every week.
Greatly recommended.

I had a minor problem with MXV actually. Not enough to get upset about. I bought a Rolleinar from them. They shipped me 2 Rolleinars and charged me for two (on my credit card). I returned the extra one, but it was perhaps 3 weeks before they refunded me (by cheque).

I've mentally flagged them as a strange operation (many camera shops are, in my experience).

I have found them good too, though quite expensive compared with other camera shops.
