Well known shop. Used to be excellent, but had a bad name a few years back.

Used to be "don't touch it with a bargepole" and inside was like a photographic Steptoe's Yard. Do we know if it's under new management?

Nicholas Cameras AP ads were awful endless and rarely updated lists of "stuff", much of which appeared to not actually be available if you bothered to enquire - and, IIRC, there were many reports of comments of awful "customer service" if you ever actually dared to venture into the physical shop!
Most successful "bricks & mortar" retailers have a substantial on-line presence which brings in both on-line sales, and "feet on the ground" customers in their stores as generated by their on-line and in-magazine ads.
Thus, vendors like Nicholas were/are living in the "dark ages" of photo-kit sales

K-3 II, K-3 and a K-70 from SRS (having now relegated the K-30 /"K-50" to a backup body), & some Sigma and Pentax lenses (and a lot of old 35mm gear!)

Wow, an Aladin's cave of treasures. I am sure all those cameras stored without caps will be just fine.

Apparently it has a large display of used Pentax gear although only twelve items are listed on their website. I don’t know anything about the place but if you are in the area it might be worth a look.
