Has anyone bought from buyacamera.co.uk. I want to buy a compact for my daughter for christmas and they have some good prices . Reading reviews although they say its uk stock some people seem to get imports and others have arrived with unsealed boxes etc.

Areb they ok or should i go elsewhere?
 
They look reasonably legit to me, though I should stress that I have no personal knowledge of the company.

They trade on Amazon marketplace and seem to have a decent history and reputation: [click].
They have nearly 250 reviews at Review Centre: [click].

They claim on their web site to have won a Good Service Award from What Digital Camera magazine, but I haven't been able to find other evidence of that one way or the other. It wasn't in 2011 [click] or 2010 [click] or 2009 [click], but I can't find any details of earlier winners. So you might argue that, even if they did win in 2008 or earlier, they're being a bit cheeky still displaying it on their web site, but it's not necessarily a hanging offence.

I bought my first digital camera from them years ago, it was only a Canon Powershot but I had no issues and would buy from them again if the price was right.

iirc they are an online offshoot of Wildings

Yes the online bit of Wildings, shame the stores have closed though
 
I bought my Lumix FZ38 from them in Feb 2010, they were spot on. ;)
 
I bought a HS10 from there last year. Great price and fast delivery.
