Where to buy 35mm film cameras in the UK

ongakublue · Mar 24, 2017

Hi everyone

I am looking for a Minolta X700 at a good price preferably from the UK. I looked on ebay but I figure there are shops that specialise in the sale of analogue/vintage cameras where cameras are tested. I could buy from them directly. Any recommendations? Also it needs to be posted to Rep. of Ireland.

Cheers

Try Simon at Collectable Cameras he's nothing listed at present but he turns cameras over quite regularly and he's reliable with excellent prices.

Ffordes would be good for this camera.

Also London Camera Exchange and Aperture.

All have accurate and precise condition ratings, a returns policy and fair prices.

+1 on the Ffordes suggestion. Have bought a few bits from them & been happy.

Ooop north there is:

West Yorkshire Cameras - Dead Link Removed - They look interesting, but also not cheap

There is also York Camera Mart (http://yorkcameramart.co.uk/) that I noticed when I was up that way with Mrs Fin a few months ago. We didn't actually go in, but the prices on the window display items seemed to be quite reasonable...

Camera World - www.cameraworld.co.uk Check out their secondhand equipment, broad selection and they have one for sale now. I have both bought and sold through them, good service from a independent camera retailer.
