That's our ridiculous legal system for you. Even the unlucky people who paid for things in the last few days will only recover a few pennies on the pound. Seems a bit fraudulent if you ask me, the operators of Camerabox must have known they were about to go under yet they continued taking payments. How can it be legal to take those payments in the last few days, knowing you are about to go bust and won't be able to honour any deliveries, but then keep the money and use it to pay off other creditors?
it is illegal to keep trading if there is no reasonable prospect of a business avoiding bankruptcy. of course, it's a bit of a grey area as to exactly when that point is reached but no doubt it will come out in the washThat's our ridiculous legal system for you.

I think my first Pentax DSLR will be arriving in the mail today so I guess this qualifies me to sign in and introduce myself. I've been doing a bit of lurking which has been very helpful in making my decision to jump in the direction of Pentax so thanks to everyone for posting good info
