Try Digital Rev on e-bay, i have bought loads of them and have been very pleased with the service, or there is URGalaxy which are just as good.

It's just a shame Bob killed the camera at the weekend before he got the chance to use it :( BOB.T 02 September 2005, 16:26 If you had let me put it away... :p scoobypreza 02 September 2005, 21:31 oooo! Echo 02 September 2005, 21:36 Gosh ( :) ) that's strange, I was looking at the same lens on 7dayshop but am veering towards the Sigma f/2.8 version though it costs more.... Anyone tried this lens and can compare them? m3matt 03 September 2005, 08:41 try http://www.warehouseexpress.com/ - v.good service and quick delivery, got all my stuff from there bigsinky 03 September 2005, 11:14 managed to get one :) on a buy it now from a uk ebay dealer. £414 which isn't too bad. still well below the £489 that jessops is selling them at (if you can find one). was that desparate i actually went into jessops but they have a lead time of 8 weeks and even then they are not guarunteed full allocation. @kbsub - thanks for the offer of the voucher m8 but i already have the wee booklet. so my lens has cost me £344 :D bit of a steal me thinks. can wait now. Pumpkin 03 September 2005, 11:26 do the vouchers work on Ebay B-I-N lenses? bigsinky 03 September 2005, 16:23 its a uk comapny so i suppose it will Mungo 05 September 2005, 17:37 Try Adorama - a very reliable US supplier. They sometimes have Canon refurbished lenses (i.e. as-new). I picked up a 70-200 F4 L for £277, which even after the 6.5% import duty and 17.5% VAT was a pretty decent price £344. The UPS man might even forget to ask you to pay it... IAN K UK300 12 September 2005, 13:20 I've had one on backorder with 8 shops. AJ Purdy have just called to say they've got stock. Mine's now on it's way to me. Regards, Ian bigsinky 14 September 2005, 10:04 arrived yesterday. boy thats a big lens, especially with the hood on. will endeavour to get out at the weekend for some shots. |
