“Product knowledge and helpfulness of staff is excellent Prices are a little high, for the big stuff it's worth the 100 mile round trip to give me the comfort factor of buying quality with guarantees and seeing the product, for smaller stuff , too expensive to justify trip / web purchases with on line competition”

“Great customer service, always a pleasure to shop at Calumet whenever I urgently need photography equipment. The prices are pretty reasonable and they always have what I want in stock. Even though I was certain I was capable in finding what I wanted, someone helped me anyway as I looked confused, I didn't even have to ask. If only there was a Calumet in East London.”

“Hello! 16 June I wrote to dru@calphoto.co.uk about lens repair. 17 June I got an answer from Gary - price will be £175 - 180. I've found it acceptable and 20 June I've brought the lens to Calumet. I got the impression that no one waited for me. A polite lady said to me that a specialist was on holiday and I should better have come another day. That was my first surprise because neither on the website, nor on the doors of Calumet I was able to find any information that Calumet provide a lens repair service only some special days. But the lady was very friendly and made all her best for me. She put the shoulder to the wheel and found through a computer and books that maximal price would be £186. I said OK! She took my lens, gave me a receipt and said that they would call me when the lens is ready to collect. Usually it'll take 10 days. OK - said I and went. But no one called. That was me who called after more than 15 days. And that was my second surprise, I have known that my lens was only examined and not fixed at all. Wow - said I and started memorizing how to film with a "camera-obscura". I confirmed one more time that I agree the price. And only 16 July I've been given a call that I could come and collect my beloved stuff. If it happened with me in the Soviet Union, where I grew up, in 1975 I would say - Great! -and I would be happy forever and ever. Please say my personal Thank You to the lady I spoke to 20th of June. Truly yours, Dmitry.”

“I visited your Wardour Street branch, just off Oxford Street. It is a small branch that allows for a close up, more personal approach. I have bought a monopod, flash modifiers, and film from this branch. Their service has always been good.”

“A little disappointed ,as was about to spend in excess of £1000.00, no follow up to initial enquiry phone call even though all forms of contact were given .It seemed as though members of staff did not communicate with each other .I had to make the follow up call and it was touch and go if the business was going else where. Even at the arrival at the store friendliness was sparse and it was very much like being at the supermarket checkout ..... put your items through the till ,pay and good bye. No offers of anything discounted or any interest in selling meanything else whatsoever. I will have to think long and hard before buying anything else from Calumet. Gave the impression of being elitest and £1300.00 was a paultry amount .”
