Please don't arrive unannounced!

Contact us first so that we can be sure that we're interested in your kit, and that we agree on an initial price. We work on an appointment basis so that we can manage our time as well as yours.

If you don't contact us or make an appointment before coming in, we may not be able to accommodate you.

We do this a lot. Over the years we've bought and sold tens-of-thousands of classic photographic items. From the everyday, to incredibly rare and sought after.

We take pride in having the knowledge and the experience to make sure you're getting the best deal on your equipment. Sometimes a minor detail can have a major effect on price.

You're not limited to emailing either - if you prefer, then come along and see us, or call us up and speak to one of our small team.

This is because we're one of the very few analogue specialist brick-and-mortar shops in the UK. Our shop is in the Victorian Grand Arcade, in Leeds city centre. We're not an anonymous, faceless online-only website.

If you're not familiar with photographic equipment, figuring out what you're looking at isn't always straightforward.

There's no need to spend hours filling in the form with every little bit of information to send to us. As highly trained nerds, we can usually identify different cameras and lenses by sight.

Give us a call and we can talk you through it. Alternatively, send us an email directly with a photo or two of what you have and we'll do the hard work.

Easy! Fill in the form as usual and let us know that you've got some images to send over. We'll send you a link to a Dropbox folder that you can upload them to.

Don't worry about it too much. We'll put everything through it's paces later anyway. In our final assessment we will give each item a grade based on various aspects of its condition - cosmetic, mechanical, optical and electronic.

If you're not sure, choose an option based on the cosmetic condition.

The values of equipment can go up or down from their initial estimates based on the condition.

When we assess the equipment, we give each item a grade based on various aspects of its condition - cosmetic, mechanical, optical and electronic.

Find out more about how we define these grades on our How we grade page.

Nowt! We’ll only use your email address or phone number to contact you about your enquiry. We will never use your details for anything else. We won’t send you spam in the distant future or give your details to any third parties.

I really hope so. Never change.
