Used & new equipment dealers

My 'prefered' used equipment dealers.
Cameras and used cameras available from KEH Camera Brokers.	KEH is "the largest" used camera retailer around and I have used their services far more than I should have ;-) They have always been reliable, prompt and fair. Not always the best price around, but always fair...

Central Camera's Used Equipment Page

Since this is my own private site and I provide completely free advertisement for the dealers I think deserve it and use myself, I can also provide some opinions on dealers that I do not believe to be worthwhile... So here goes...

I have recently ordered from Pittsburgh Camera Exchange in Pittsburgh, PA. They do have a decent assortment of used stuff and sometimes at reasonable prices. But they have problems... First, they offer multiple identical items on their site at different prices. If you order the less expensive item, the most expensive item is placed in your shopping cart! It took me two phone calls and e-mails to straighten this out on my order! Second, the descriptions of the items are not good. Worse, the pictures accompanying these items are sometimes far from correct. I ordered one such item, going by the picture since I was unfamiliar with the model. What they sent me was correct by the model, but nothing at all like the picture. Which brings us to the third problem. Returns... I have been waiting over a week to hear from these people. Nothing... By the end of this week, I will dispute my credit card charge and let them worry about it... I can not possibly recommend this company to any one. If they have something you just have to have, call them on the phone. Verify, verify, verify and then double check when the order arrives!!! Their web site is located at http://www.pghcamex.com/, not to go there but just to alleviate any possible confusion...

This has finally been resolved, but not until I wrote to the apparent owner of PCE which is Bernies Photo Center. Apparently they use quite a few names, especially on ebay! Why???

If you have any suggestions for other sites, just let me know...
And if you happen to have a Century Universal, Speed Graphic, Graphic View II or any Minolta XK or Mamiya C330 equipment laying around that you'd like to get rid of, let me know too! ;-)
