Hi Rob,

I've not had any personal dealings with them (yet) but know
two people who have purchased domestic electrical items and
have been very satisfied with price and delivery.

After-sales service is not such an issue with these domestic
items as the manufacturers have well-established warranty
schemes, but that may not apply equally to cameras.  If I
was buying an EOS 300D I would use Park Cameras of Burgess
Hill.  They are quoting £749.99.

Hope this is useful,

Tony

Lol - I knew someone was gonna pick up on the pun there!

Don't know if I could cope with the real one, so trying a cybernetic
voice activated version first!

Might have known it would be you Cotty.

Hows married life treating you?

$1699 US.
