“The exchange of cameras was seamless and I had forgot to take out my SD card from the camera I traded in and they sent it back quickly!! Thank you all soo much!!”
“Prompt, fair pricing in sales and purchases. In some, the final quote for their purchases actually resulted in increases for gear over initial online estimate. Deliveries come well-packaged. Customer service is very responsive. Have had several transactions with MPB and all have been very positive experiences.”
“I traded a lens for my camera that I realized I would probably never use, for a lens that I’ve wanted, but couldn’t afford. It was still a big purchase, but now I have it, and am very happy with it. It came perfectly wrapped and protected, which was good, because the outer box was damaged by the shipping company.
The whole transaction was very straightforward with excellent and prompt communication, and the steps to make it happen were easy.
Attached image is one of the first shots captured with new lens, on my Nikon 1 V2 camera.”
“MPB representatives are always very helpful. I always receive a quick and detailed response whenever I have questions. I will always be using MPB for all my camera related needs.”
“You know how it is....lusting for that "dream lens" that is always out of your monetary "comfort zone." This was me. MPB had my dream lens and at an excellent price but I still couldn't justify the expense. Then, I realized they offered a very tempting trade in program so I gave it a shot. I immediately had two excellent quotes on gear I no longer used. I quickly accepted the offer and mailed in the gear (paid for by MPB!). Within a week of MPB receiving my stuff, they then mailed out my beloved dream lens. The process was easy and fast. Bonus points as the lens I received was "better than described." Could not be any happier! Thank you MPB!”
“I was moving from one camera system to a different one. I had a lot of gear to sell and was buying quite a bit. It was really easy to get the quote, ship out my things, get the gear assessed, and get my new gear. They even said some of my stuff was in better shape than I thought it was.
Also, I wanted to make a change before I hit the submit button to get my new gear, and that was also easy.”
“MPB provides a painless and stress-free trade in process. I had updates along the way as well as clear instructions on how to move the process along each step of the way. I’ll always check MPB before any other retailer.”
“good prices, but take forever and a day to sell them anything. don't be in a hurry to get paid buy them. going to be at least two weeks, or longer.
Any time of year, it will take just as long, I have tried this at least five times.
UPDATE : still didn't get the quote , has been 7 days , 5 business days,,,, will be six tomorrow AND OUTSIDE THE " WINDOW".”
“I would not recommend using these to sell your kit. I got a quote to sell my Nikon, was very happy with it, sent it off. When they got the camera they then offered 50% less than they quoted. I obviously took the camera back. When I got it back, both the battery I sent and the camera case were missing. I complained about this and they said' its in their terms and conditions' - no offer of a replacement or refund to cover me buying the replacement battery or case, just a blank refusal to do anything about it. They have basically stolen from me! It's theft as they have not returned what I sent them, no matter what their excuse. Terrible company. avoid!!!”
“Quick. Handled equipment properly. Easier than bargaining with locals via Craigslist.
What is missing? If a proposed sale is rejected, give sellers the option for the equipment to be parted out or recycled.”
