Hi Guys...
Just a heads up to those who may or may not have heard of MPB that they are now buying and selling certain Pentax cameras and lenses.
I have been buying and selling with MPB for the last couple of years and they offer a fantastic service.
Just yesterday I had a camera picked up from them. Free pick up via DPD, one hour time slot. The camera was picked up approx 3.30pm. I received a message from them to say they had received the camera this morning and the money was in my account by tea time.
I hope they expand their Pentax stock.
Cheers,
Wayne.

Thanks I'll have a look at their site. As to Germany France USA they are just 3 of the 56 countries I've visited and worked in over a period of 39 years on the road in the machine tool business. Not forgetting Brighton.

I would hope that will change as they expand more in Pentax gear.
I remember asking for a price for the brilliant although niche camera that is the Sony RX1.
They where not interested but a few months after offered me a very good price and extended there Sony range massively along with there Canon compact cameras.

Did you actually ask them Peter or just look at the list they buy?

If they have not had a certain lens/camera in stock before its not listed as something they are interested in.
