I'm after a BP535 for a Canon 500i.

Jessops quote £119
Microwarehouse £90

Diesel's US site $126.20 inc shipping about £79

No probs with US site mate - totally reputable long termers. In fact I just spent over £20k with them for broadcast kit for our US office - I cunningly saved paying on the postage for my modest battery and wide angle adapter in that

dont jessops price match!!!

not, with the states obviously, but you should be able to get it for £90
ok its a tenner more than the us, but
a) you get it straight away
b) if it ***** up, you can change it straight away
c) there isn't a c, because a & b were so good.

just a thought.....
