Have heard mixed reports about camerabox, so a bit hit and miss
 
I had the misfortune to order from Camerabox in November, a total shambles.

I offered them a final chance to resolve the situation before I resorted to Watchdog and multiple forum postings. The charged my card for £600 for stock items and took them longer than 3 weeks to deliver it.

I was effectively £600 down on the run up to christmas and I couldn't order from elsewhere as I was at my credit limit yet they wouldnt credit the card back for 14-28 days if i recall correctly . This was an item reported IN STOCK at time of order. After confirming by email at least twice that I want it cancelled and the card refunded NOW!!!!....they delivered the goods using a next day courier, apprx 3 weeks after the order was placed and card charged. So it wasn't a mixup nor was it lost in transit nor held up due to the weather.

I was having correspondence with them all through the process and twice asked their MD to contact me - he or she never even emailed a response.

I'm generally a fair guy, and problems can happen anywhere in a supply chain. I gave the company three opportunites to deliver these goods after the original delivery was missed, yet they took the p 1 5 5.:nono:

NEVER AGAIN.
 
Much grey stuff too.
 
Try Kerso, hes a member on here. better prices too!
 
I bought my 450d + kit lens new from camerabox.
it all turned up in a plain white box and components wrapped in bubblewrap, I questioned whether the item was new and/or refurbed. got this reply:
"All of our products are brand new. Sometimes in order to fulfil an order with minimal wait for the customer we split lenses from kits. Your lens is fully covered by a UK warranty both with the manufacturer and with us."
fwiw, they were fast, and the camera has been superb, 2 years on and still going strong.
 
yea ok..so no original boxes..i would have been ****ed...
 
Thanks for all your cemments,my BB has been down since last friday,now up again,i have bought from kerso in the past +++:):thumbs:
