“They always have a great selection of equipment for sale at a price that I’m happy to pay. Cameras and lenses are always really well packaged. Recently traded in some old equipment and got a fair price for it, without any issues whatsoever - much easier than trying to sell it privately.”
“I’m recently retired and had a few Nikon lenses sitting around — from a DSLR that no longer worked, and another for a mirrorless camera I bought last year that turned out to be more than I needed. I decided to try selling them through MPB.
I’ll admit, I was a little leery at first since I had no experience trading or selling camera gear. Another company had given me a quote, but their higher offer was only valid if I traded in, not sold outright. MPB, on the other hand, offered a straightforward trade-in process and even gave me cash back, which was deposited promptly into my account.
Their instructions were very clear, and communication by email was excellent throughout. I did have a brief “uh-oh” moment when I got an adjusted quote, but it turned out to be only a $20 reduction because I didn’t have the lens bag. I also didn’t have the original boxes or paperwork, but that wasn’t a problem.
Overall, MPB made the process easy, fair, and stress-free for someone new to selling camera equipment. I’d definitely use them again!”
“I have part exchanged with mpb on 2 occasions and been offered more money than the online quote. The exchange process is easy to follow and understand. Mpb arranged a courier company to collect and deliver. Within 7 days I had upgraded my camera equipment.
If you have items to sell or part exchange then Iwould definitely recommend mpb”
“I've used MPB several times and keep returning. Why? There are many reasons including their easy-to-use website, great pricing and extremely fair trade-in appraisals. Most recently, I sent in a lens for trade and was quoted a price. Imagine my surprise when they contacted me and said my lens was worth more than the quote. Talk about honesty. That furthered my already strong approval of this company. I will continue being a dedicated customer.”
“MPB did a great job. They were quick and clear with their communication, gave a better than expected trade-in price for my old gear, offered a competitive price for the camera I was purchasing, made doing the deal really easy and quick and I’m really happy with the condition of the used camera I bought. I would deal with them again without hesitation and recommend them to a friend.”
“I am still chasing the company to give me feedback after a whole month of waiting and no news. I did send 2 Hasselblad lenses and the company did receive the lenses.
Horrible horrible service, no support at all. Very very bad experience!”
“Great Company to work with. Equipment is just as described and the free shipping makes it easy. The pricing on the equipment is the best I've seen anywhere else for similar items. This should be your first stop for trading, selling and buying.”
“Great overall service, in particular being informed at each stage of a transaction. Also impressed with the condition of the items I have bought from them.”
“The quote was increased once the kit was examined. Payment was prompt and my new kit delivered quickly. This is a repeated experience. I’ve used them several times over the years.”
“MPB made it so quick and easy to trade in gear I haven’t used for awhile. The trade in value was fair - more than I would’ve got at other online retailers!”
“MPB is easy to do business with and I appreciate the discount for buying when trading lenses. The offers are lower than selling on ebay (which is to be expected) but when you include the time to photograph the equipment, listing the equipment, answering questions, paying the commission and then boxing & shipping. MPB offers a good and fair price. For me, time is money, I think I’m making more $$ by selling to MPB.”
“Unfortunately I have been waiting for over 15 days for confirmation that my two Hasselblad lenses, which have already been collected by DHL, have arrived at MPB. Apparently the package is still held at customs and MPB is supposed to clear it according to DHL. So far I’ve only had hassle. My email was never answered. If I hadn’t seen how many reviews MPB has, I would have thought the company is a scam.
Addendum 1: Many thanks for the quick reply on Trustpilot. If I had received such a quick answer to my email, I wouldn’t have written the review. I attached to the package all the documents I received automatically by email for the shipment.
Addendum 2 (23.09.25): Since I still haven’t heard anything from MPB at all — no email, no confirmation, no phone calls, nothing — I called the support phone number myself. I have never experienced such an unmotivated, even rude, support on the phone. An absolute disaster. When I asked the gentleman for his last name, he refused to give it. I also did not receive a confirmation email from the polite gentleman. It’s outrageous how customers are treated here. I have absolutely nothing to prove that my lenses were picked up. STAY AWAY FROM MPB!!!!”
