*******, who here has bought from them?

Hahaha, basic maths fail.... For some crazy reason I thought it was -6 hours, not + and maybe they just started for the day hence my email around 13:30.

A lot of stores open until 10pm, UPS and the post office however do not so it won't go out until tomorrow now.
 
Yeah I've had a few cases where I've been tracking the flight during the afternoon one day and I still get it the next day... Not bad for such a long distance :)

The last order didn't make it to my local delivery hub until 1000-1100 ish and I still got it which was a surprise! I thought that would be too late lol
 
I need an RX100 by the end of this week and I don't know whether to order with these in the hope that it gets here in time. I don't fancy paying Jessops £539 for it!
 
Well they quote 2-3 business days, and say they'll dispatch within 24 hours of the order so I think if you haven't ordered already you'd have no hope.

I paid earlier today and I've still not had the confirmation of them shipping - I'm not expecting it this week but it would be nice.
 
I ordered on Thursday at 4:10pm (when the bank transferred the money) and had all my toys by 1:34pm yesterday afternoon :)

Oh and don't worry yourself. I emailed ******* when I transferred the money after receiving the invoice and details. It normally takes around 24 hours for replies if you do anything after midday I found.

Very good chance I'd have thought. Baring in mind when I ordered and paid for mine. As far as I can see, they would have been here quicker if it wasn't for the weekend. Things slowed down then, but still kept plodding on.

Mine went out at 3:29am Friday morning, Hong Kong to germany, then to the midlands somewhere, then to my house (with Digi rev). ******* were the same time, but to dubai, germany then deeside, then to my house. The shipping seems to go through every 3 hours from Hong Kong.

Forgot to mention, you get tracking codes, and unlike useless companies we normally see like Citylink, etc, DHL and UPS have tracking available for every step of the way. ******* use UPS which have fantastic tracking available. I was very impressed.

Well you can either wait or send em an email to chase I guess hehe :) It does suck when you're waiting for stuff you've ordered!
 
Got my 5D3 from them, all went great.

The only negative was the packaging around the box wasn't great (5D3 box inside another box tight), but that's already been mentioned over in their section on TP and they have said it will be improved.
 
Tempted to buy a 70-200 Nikkor VR2 from them, I think i'll try buying a SB910 from them first as a Tester, Not sure i'd go bank transfer with them though.. I like Paypal protection when buying from HK.

Have to say I am close to placing an order with them.

Most likely EOS650D with the 18-135 lens along with a 100-400L

Just need to make my mind up that this is the combo I want.

Unless you really want the STM feature of the 18-135 lens you might as well save a little and get the cheaper 18-55mm kit lens with the 100-400L? Or are you planning on leaving that 100-400 at home a lot? :p
 
Well it's arrived and boy is it good!!!

Not really played much, but even at 200mm @ f2.8 it's still looking damn pretty sharp.
Gonna have a play and see if I can find it's sweet spots.
 
:D

*edit*

Judging by your location you can't be far from me... I'll be round to borrow it later ;)
