Canon 60d

Monterrey · 2013-05-04 15:07:21

Thoughts on this? http://dlkphoto.co.uk/view/2899/canon-60d-5-lens-pro-starter-kit.aspx Does anyone have any experience buying from DLK Photo? It's a great deal but I'm wondering if there's a catch. Any helpful advice on this deal or if you know of any similar deals for a 60d I would appreciate it :)

I've bought from Ian Kerr (owner of flashcamera) directly before a few years back. In my opinion he's a reputable seller and I'd use him again. I believe he originally started selling on ebay before setting up his own website. He still sells on ebay and has pretty good feedback 99.4% positive. http://myworld.ebay.ie/kerso/

i had worries about using flash camera but bit the bullet and went for it as all the reviews were positive, paid by bank transfer and recieved a small discount for doing so, i have just recieved my order a couple of days ago of a canon 6d 17-40l and 70-200l 2.8 from ian , cant recommend him highly enough , he kept in constant contact throughout my obsessive emailing to make sure order was enroute, i will definitely use ian again, i just hope this post puts other peoples minds at rest and encourage you to use ian , the savings are huge in comparison to buying the same in ireland

Thanks for tthe replies folks, I ordered the Canon 60d and a 50mm 1.8 from FlashCamera last Saturday week(11th). I got an order confirmation and a Paypal receipt straight away, however I haven't heard anything since. Thought I might get a notification about shipping, so I am assuming it hasn't been shipped yet. I sent him a message on Friday asking for an update but he hasn't replied yet.

Should I be worried??

Got some bits last summer - not a body - and promptly shipped. Best price for the grip and spare batteries. A good guy.
