Are there any pitfalls to buying off Digitalrev, I've seen they have some 1D mk2's in the UK, does being a grey import affect the warranty?
If alls above board could be a cheap 3mth old 20d going

I got my 20D from them, top outfit, will be using again when the wallet recovers from my hols.


Warranty claims are handled by their London office as far as i know, and the "No VAT/Duty" sales are genuine, i got £60 worth of import duty refunded in less than a week.

Bank transfers can take a few days but well worth the wait for the savings you can make.

They were fairly crap when I used them. The item took ages to arrive and their communication was poor.

I used them for about £2k worth of lenses, and won't use them again.

Oh, not so good then, with the camera being in uk I thought its almost impossible to up the delivery, or is it aftersales?. I dont fancy paying for something that has to come from Hong kong, but if its already here......I've got the wants real bad
