I'd like to buy a GoPro Hero 9. Buying from their own site seems to offer the best bundle deals. However, if you look at their reviews on Trustpilot, the customer feedback is absolutely diabolical!

Does anybody have any recommendations on where I could get a good bundle deal that doesn't involve buying from the GoPro site? Maybe there are some small, independent camera shops that could offer something competitive? A Google shopping search doesn't yield much that's of use.

Seems to be mostly big issues with delivery times and dispatch errors/problems. Something I'd prefer to avoid as I want to get using it ASAP.

CVP have some in stock: https://cvp.com/product/gopro-chdhx-901-rw-hero-9-...

John Lewis also sell GoPro stuff if there's one near you (still).
CVP isn't particularly competitive with GoPro's bundle option, that's the main downside. John Lewis don't seem to stock GoPro any more.

Maybe I'll just take a punt on buying from GoPro but when you see so many bad reviews it's a bit unnerving!

I bought a GoPro Hero 9 bundle directly from GoPro in March without any issues. It arrived within 4 days.
I also bought some more accessories from them 2 weeks ago and they arrived quickly without any problems.
Were they delivered to the UK?

Just a quick update on this.

I decided to just take a punt and buy the camera from the GoPro website because there weren't any other comparable deals elsewhere. I ordered it late on Sunday evening and it arrived about an hour ago (three working days in total) so it turned out well.

Maybe I was lucky or something but I almost didn't bother after reading so many negative reviews about their delivery service!
