This is for the Camera World in Wells Street, London W1. It's hard to be anything but brutally honest about this mini camera store. I walk in. I walk to the counter and give a little background- say 15 seconds- about who I am , was sponsored by Canon, and that I have some 2nd hand collectable equipment to show them. Man behind the counter: " Could you hurry up. I'm busy. I don't have time to chat!" (Yes I added the exclamation mark. He was beyond terse. But simply a rude offensively toned worker behind the diminutive counter. My bag was on the counter. I looked behind me: There was not one customer. Only one in the shop being served by a colleague of his.Me: " Are you serious?" "We've only got two staff on today". My thoughts: " Is this man for real?". My.85 year old Stepfather begins- I stress begins- to unwrap the bubble wrap on the first camera. Not even a 1/3rd unwrapped this is God's honest truth, the salesman says: "No. Not interested. Not in good enough condition" He hadn't even seen the item. His knowledge was so great that he couldn't even put the lens cap back on. A lens cap for pity sake! And he buys and sells camera's? I looked at my stepfather and said: " I don't want to spend another second in here. And so we left. His ENTIRE attitude was not just rude but repellent. We BOTH felt the same. His shop may be shrinking, and stock as limited as it gets, but his behaviour has moved me to write this review. As a well known international photojournalist after 35 years I know my stuff. Other camera stores. Other helpful assistants. It is no wonder the shop's stock is so small. I'm going to ask a colleague to pay a visit later this week. He too is well known. For me they were an unhelpful rude staff. As for his knowledge of Rolleiflex's? When you can't put a lenscap on you have to wonder! Never again. My advice is go to Jessops down the road. Or to the lovely Camera Museum nearby. Polite. V. Knowledgeable. And a sale completed. Let's see how they treat the next mystery shopper...
