    Dubai Aircrash

    Too much discussion and views. In this scenario it's simple. Get the hell out of that situation without impeding others or worrying about replaceable items. The crew have just 90 seconds at worst to get everyone off and without worrying about damaging the slides with baggage. THERE SIMPLY IS NO...

    Buying from HDEW & Panamoz

    I get where you are coming from @gramps and fully understand why you would think it is wrong to state something that is technically covered but when trading you may have to disclose T&C before making a sale. That is why we have a similar statement on our companies T&C that states the buyer is...

    Buying from HDEW & Panamoz

    Our companies standard T&C's state that condition as well but in practice we have never experienced any issues as in order to import / export we have to make the necessary declarations and pay import duty / VAT which is recoverable. Couriers will not carry goods without this documentation. I...

    Buying from HDEW & Panamoz

    I can give a big thumbs up for HDEW. I enquired on Friday morning about a 5D Mk3 body and asked whether I could collect on the Saturday morning. I also received a prompt polite response to my questions regarding a VAT invoice and whether the box it was supplied in matched with the serial number...

    issue importing raw into lightroom or just me being fussy

    Hi @dan_yell I think you will find that when importing there is a section below the 'TO' section which can apply a formatting rule when imported. Set the Apply During Import 'DEVELOP SETTINGS' to 'NONE" LR does not destroy the original RAW files and you will find that there is a 'RESET'...

    Sussex Cameras Pevensey - Are they real

    That is what I found looking on various sites to try and establish this so thanks for responding. If @Gremlin does venture in then we may know for sure. Thanks for looking as well. As regards any responses from 'Customer Services' to any questions as per their statement - well so far none...

    Sussex Cameras Pevensey - Are they real

    Well spotted. It gets better all the time. How do these people think they can get away it. I just wonder whether this is worth reporting to trading standards. If it is a legitimate (which is highly unlikely) then I would not want to spoil things over genuine naivety and understanding. This is...

    Sussex Cameras Pevensey - Are they real

    An update : My natural curiosity meant I could not help myself so I tried the phone again and I actually got through this afternoon. The lady who answered sounded a bit short and there were definitely sounds of children and a household in the background - if the manner of her responses were...

    Sussex Cameras Pevensey - Are they real

    Thanks once again @StewartR, @Ady N and @badlywornroy for taking a look and confirming what I had observed. There are indeed several things wrong that led me to suspect this may be a scam that would be catching those less aware out and harming their pockets. Exactly why I wanted to bring this to...

    Sussex Cameras Pevensey - Are they real

    Thanks for replying @jakeblu and @StewartR. It is good to know others are looking. The website came up along with other well known suppliers on Ebay at the base of the listings. The website address is www.sussexcameras.co.uk and the site does look reasonably professional. The given address...

    Sussex Cameras Pevensey - Are they real

    Come across this company tonight, checks say it is a relatively new domain. The site looks OK. Says it accepts PayPal payments but requests credit card details on ordering page without directing to PayPal first - suspicious to begin with. Seems too good to be true so probably is but always...
