No problem - you're not wrong re technology, it can be a real pain at times.

I've been selling camera gear for 37 years (I started very young of course ) - I sometimes reminisce about the days pre-internet when things were different.

All I had to worry about was our weekly advert in the AP and getting the copy over to them in time None of this adwords / eBay / website stuff!

Thanks for your comments.

We have an issue with the link from our website to our eBay listings with certain products, which our web people cannot get to the bottom of.

When there is a promotion, some prices don't update on eBay when the offer is over. The 15mm price of £485.10 was a promo price from a while ago which did not revert back to the correct price of £539 - I have now corrected this.

The only way to manage this is to manually change the prices on eBay some of which can get missed when we have over 1000 products on there.

Our web people cannot get to the bottom of this which is very frustrating!

I can assure you that there is no intention to mislead anyone.

We've now sold out of 85mm's in black.

As mentioned above we can take backorders to secure the deal price.

Good morning all,

Our Black Friday offers are now active.

Chris

In a word, no...

I'll chase them up as they've been on order for a while.

Hi Mike - for me, very well, for others I'm not so sure, hence you get the odd bargain appear when a dealer sells excess stock, usually after having not sold the item for a certain set period of time.

This is also the case with Amazon and explains the recent low price on the Silver HD 50mm....

Believe me they are....

My best guess is that they have had one in stock for a long time and have decided to reduce the price until it sells.

This is exactly what is happening.

My prediction - early digital compact cameras, especially premium models, are going to rise in value.

We've already seen this starting to happen.

Nikon supply is terrible at the moment.

It's all on backorder with them but comes through in tiny quantities and when it comes in it is already pre-ordered so goes straight out.

As for Canon Eos R7, that's even worse....
