“Quotes are always quick and fair. The whole trade-in process is highly efficient and best of all shipping your gear is FREE! I only wish that once your purchase be shipped the same day that your trade-in gear gets inspected and appraised. If MPB can do that, it will be perfect!”
“The process as always was super easy. The quotes once more was more than fair with even an increase after I sent my kit in as it was in a better condition that I initially estimated.
The customer support is fantastic and I highly recommend this if you need fast exchange of your gear with something else.”
“Saved me $1000 on new lens..Lens was in condition described..Took 7 days to review my Trade-in..Shipped next day FedEx on return, box had been wet at some point & was beat up pretty bad, but new lens was in great shape..Would definitely recommend buying from MPB..”
“From start to finish this was a professional act. Very easy to use and very quick to complete. The kit I was part exchanging was upgraded from my opinion and the kit I received was every bit as good as described.”
“After receiving an increase in the trade-in offer for my Fuji X100F I contracted the MPB support team to see if I could change my mind with regard to the equipment I initially wished to purchase.
The experience could not have been any easier. The support team representative quickly remove the equipment I originally listed for purchase and replaced it with the items I now desired. No problem!
I will be needing further lenses for my new purchase at some point......I will be purchasing them from MPB.”
“MPB was fair in their prices, both trade-in and purchasing. I have traded gear multiple times so far and while it was intimidating at first, everything worked out great every time. Tips to new customers- they cannot be reached by phone, and the chat option hangs for me...but using their support email (and referencing transaction #s) got quick responses every time- usually within an hour, sometimes in minutes. (No service on weekends though) The service reps are very friendly and willing to assist with requests not available on the website (extra pics or checking the item's settings or another look at condition of what they're selling, etc.) For the people that received items in less than expected conditions...reach out for assistance. With the level of support I've experienced, I feel they are reasonable enough to work on any issue as long as the customer is also reasonable.
Things I didn't like- 1. Wished there was phone support. 2. As a photo gear company, some of the product photos are really bad (overexposed, only 1 angle, or clear picture of lens glass with lots of lint, etc.)...really need to zoom in and compare if cosmetics is important to you. (it is to me) 3. My third party batteries, and (extra) original chargers were all returned to me from a trade...I have no use for them, and the next owner would've appreciated the extra accessories. They did not deduct from the trade quote, but I think this is wasteful.”
“My first time selling and buying with MPB - it was so easy and a fair offer (which was increased when they inspected my lenses) Communications very good and my purchase arrived well packed and in the condition described.”
“Their trade in and second hand store is very well maintained! I’ve purchased a few lenses from here and I’ve never been disappointed. Helped me get into some amateur photography and pursue my hobby!”
