My web order was for unknown reasons rejected by your website which I found very poor. I was then cut off whilst talking to a member of staff trying to sort it out. In the end I placed a telephone order for which the sales staff member was very helpful and understanding. So 5* for your sales team, 2* for the website order. Impossible to rate with the above, I have just given average overall i.e. neither good nor bad.

Very helpful staff, when ordering a new camera and lens, staff were most helpful over phone and via email, quick delivery and turnaround, highly recommended, would use again.

Nice to go to the Calumet store in Belfast as i know i am getting the best advice from people that know photography and that means all the staff. Its a no pressure environment as the customer comes first. On my second visit to the store i was surprised to be recognized as having been there before, good to see a personal touch.

All my dealings (purchases and replacements) have been very efficiently and politely dealt with both over the phone and in the Manchester shop. I like the fact that they are prepared to price match with any other UK company and I would very happily recommend Calumet to all.

First, I had my concierge call Calumet to see what selection of lights they had in stock. No one picked up the phone, so my friend and I took a short cab ride, as the website posted they were open. When we walked into the store, there were twoclerks, who were assisting customers. I had to wait about ten minutes to get assistance. During that ten minutes, the phone rang, and despite one clerk standing near the phone and not directly engaged with a customer, simply let the phone ring. We laughed and realized that this was their standard protocol. When I jokingly mentioned it to the clerk, he acted as if he did not hear me. Somewhat of an overpriced, and below average service, but I got what I needed, so I will not rate them "poor", which is truly what they deserve.

Used to be a great business, wide range of stock, rapid delivery, good prices. Then came changes to the on-line login which never really worked for me - unable to pay on line. At the same time the website was 'updated' and has become almost un-useable. In particular the search function does not work and it is no longer possible to search for your requirements on the site. Calumet still has a good range of products at a good price but now, if I want to purchase from them I must do so on the 'phone. Even this has slowed down as I get the impression that the on-line services do not work for the staff and they often take an inordinate time to find items, prices etc. Needless to say I am now looking elsewhere more and more and suspect that unless the on-line site improves dramatically I will find other suppliers and leave Calumet after a considerable time as a customer.
