Ebay/Hong Kong

Borderfox

Seen this while looking on Ebay, anybody have any dealings with or heard anything from them (they are listed as Darlington UK), whats the most reliable Hong Kong dealers that are on Ebay? heard some talk about them on the boards a while ago. Nice prices and willing to take a chance on duty...

KEA Photo have 100% feedback, good prices and a great range of equipment. I've heard they are customs friendly as well.

As Darren says the boys at Kea are great. Also used DigitalRev in the past and they were also excellent.

I stick with URGalaxy, pretty much the same prices but a much larger range.

I got a 50 1.8 from kea about 2 weeks ago!

I ordered it on a Friday, and it arrived the following Thursday.
The parcel was marked "2nd hand lens" when it arrived.

I'm just dying to know what you saw...

100-400 L for €1000 Cambo. I am looking for something with a bit more length to it. I was thinking of a Canon 100-400 L or a Canon 300 f4L IS with a 1.4x tc or a Sigma 100-300 f4 also with a 1.4x tc when needed. I am inclined to think that the 100-400 will be most useful with the added length and IS in its favour. I should have lots of work outdoors this summer between Polo and Showjumping. I like to take a lot of different angles and so the 100-400L should suit best.

Thanks for all the info, I should be purchasing within the week. I will keep you posted on what happens.

My HK guy would have to be ChinaArts. Very good prices and always gets here on time with no customs jiggery.

recently i've used Trendypod strange name I know! but very keen prices and good ebayers. Sale went smoothly

not to long ago i was in the market for a tripod, after trying to get one from an irish store i gave up and eventually went with Morris Photographic who were a little cheaper than some of the german sites. Again everything went according to plan.

I used Kea Photo recently to get a Canon 50mm 1.4 and a Sigma DG-500. Albert at Kea seems to have got confused and listed my goods as demos worth small money on the shipping manifest - hence no customs charge! Oh dear.....;)
