That’s due to the covid private sellers have to post from the p.o ..I stopped my selling last week due to it

Oh of course

Best? That's difficult to answer.

I've bought from (in no particular order) MPB, LCE, FFordes, Camera Jungle, eBay & on the classifieds on this very forum.

I've bought from WEX, MPB, LCE, and FFordes and had good service from them all.

I know you can't say "wanted" but some idea of digital, film, vintage would help us find some tips

Camera Jungle I have no complaints with. Ordered yesterday evening at 17:45, parcel arrived at 2 this afternoon. Both items exactly as described.
They're running a 10% off discount currently too.

I'd add Bristol Cameras as well.

Best experience has been with private sales. Camera owners generally take great care of their gear. After that specialist camera shops that also trade second hand. Worst experience has been with non specialist shops, wouldn’t try that again.
