Hi. I work in central London (Westminster/Victoria area mainly) a few days a week. Wondering if anyone knows of a good second-hand dealer I can look at when I'm down there? Not many retailers our here in Shropshire!
 
Grays of Westminster readily springs to mind.
 
Yes - I thought of them, but they're Nikon exclusive aren't they? Looking for Olympus 35mm and Canon DSLR.
 
There seems to be a couple in WC1A, but mainly Leica and other premium brands. Aperture are also there and seem to have an interesting selection at times, plus I believe it is a cafe as well!

Aperture are a nice bunch and Jacobs is just round the corner as well. It doesn't take too long to get to from Victoria either.
 
Bought from Aperture many times and find there service good as is there equipment. Also prices can be super cheap at times;)
 
Camera World in Wells Street, off Oxford Street, have a small selection of second hand. Usually at good prices.
If you have the time the Chiswick Camera Centre, chiswck park on the district line, are very good. There is also Mr Cad in Croydon, reasomably easy to get to from Victoria.
 
Yeh Aperture can have a good deal at times, although not as good as here on TP I must say!

I've found much of Aperture's stock in quite poor condition lately, and haven't bought anything from them for a long time. I used to rate them highly, but not quite so much anymore.

For quality second-hand stock, I can only sing the praises of Grays of Westminster. It might cost a little more, but it's first-rate service backed up with excellent guarantees. They're Nikon only, though :D
