So, like yourself I’m looking to find out who will be delivering my order now, their tracking system isn’t great,

Paid via paypal so at least theres dispute resolution if it goes wrong (slow as that may be). Will post back if it arrives or if theres trouble.

They have the lens for the same price. Is there any advantage to E-infin compared to eGlobal? Are they based in EU? Faster delivery? More reliable?

You order and they confirm, the next day you get another email with a photo of your packaged item and the next day they ship it with tracking details attached. Usually a 4-5 day delivery time from when you order to when it arrives and you are guaranteed to not have to pay any import duties etc. I can see them taking a whole lot of business from all bricks and mortar stores and even other places like Amazon, MPB etc. The new stuff on E-Infinity is cheaper than most used prices.
Bacchus wrote: » Well that sounds quite wonderful. At least the gear isn't shipping from the other side of the world (eGlobal are Asian based right?). There must be some catch with E-infin though if they are operating out of UK at those prices? Grey market and therefore no warranty?
Chavways wrote: » Correct, I think they are grey market and no mention on their website of a warranty. And I doubt any OEM would honour any defects if they discovered it was purchased through E-Infinity or eGlobal but I guess that's the risk we take for cheaper gear!
