“I am writing this review for gear I sold to MPB. I plan to purchase from them but have not done so yet. On the selling side, the process was very simple - you enter the gear you want to sell, your view of the condition and then you ship it to them. Within 2-3 days of receipt, they tell you whether they agree with the condition, and if not, they will tell you why. You can then decide whether to proceed, or cancel. If you proceed, you get money on your account within 2-3 more days. I did a bit of comparison and their prices are fair. Obviously you might get more by selling direct to someone, but my gear was not worth enough to justify the extra hassle. I sold a camera body and two lenses. The camera came back with a higher price, one lens was slightly less and the other lens was as planned. Hint: keep the original camera/lens boxes, as selling in the original box helps a little. Also, don't forget to include everything you have (spare batteries, even if not OEM, neck strap, etc).”
“Great service from end to end which left me perfectly happy with the quality purchase I made and the accompanying trade the was also quick and simple to arrange with a very speedy response and settlement. Nice one mpb!”
“Getting a quote was straight forward and free shipping greatly appreciated even if I rejected the quote.
I also enjoyed the huge variety of used products to choose from if buying .”
“This was my 1st experience selling my photo equipment. My decision to use MPB proved to be the right one. Their communication was excellent from start to finish. I was given what I considered to be a fair price for the equipment and payment was fast. I am confident in recommending MPB to family, friends and anyone looking to sell their photo equipment. Great job!”
“I checked MPB out based on the podcast “The Photowalk”. The website was easy to use and I felt the quote I received was fair. The shipping labels and instructions were received quickly. After I completed the online portion, a member of the staff contacted me to see if I had any questions. The equipment was checked over and the offer received within two business days and the payment to me was processed and received VERY quickly. Great Job!!
“In years past I did a transaction through another company and that made me very hesitant to try selling gear through the internet.””
“Really good way to get rid of old gear you don't want and replace it with new gear. No waiting for someone to contact you, as they buy in most conditions and give a fair price. I actually sent in some lenses, and they upgraded the condition of them from what I put in. Very honest and reputable service.”
“I was able to upgrade my equipment by trading in older equipment. The process was quite smooth and I had my new gear in just a few days. I would not hesitate to do business with MPB again.”
“Brilliant company! The whole transaction went very smoothly, and if ever you do have an issue it’s always resolved very quickly and amicably.
I would have no hesitation in using MPB again.”
