Has anyone here ever used www.camerasdirect.com.au to buy equipment? I have never bought off of the internet before but the prices are just so low. Is it safe to buy from stores like these?
I don't know about Cameras Direct but I have used UR Galaxy. Melbourne http://stores.ebay.com.au/UR-Galaxy-Australia
I have bought a couple of cameras including a 40D and a few lenses, they have an ebay shop but if you email Chen he will give you a cheap quote for what you want, they are good to deal with and among the cheapest. If you want an actual walk-in shop then this is not for you.
I live a fair distance from any real camera shop so buying from the internet seems like an excellent option to me. I always know what I want so there is no need to talk with a sales person, I personally haven't met one that actually helps anyway. Maybe its just the shops in Adelaide.
My only worry is that I have never bought from the internet before so I wasn't sure it was all legit, some of the prices are so low.
Thanks for the response.
