Nikon 50mm f1.8
Ok today went into Jacobs asked nice man can I have a nikon 50mm 1.8 "yes sir that will be in for you in 10 days time"
 so down the road into Jessops nice girl do you have the Nikon 50mm 1.8 " sorry not in stock but can get it in about a week for you" I ask how much it would be she said 139 pounds I say but its only 89 on line she says arrrrr if you order it on line and have it delivered its 89 pounds, but if you order it now and have it delivered its 139 pounds never mind (may as well order from warehouseexpress ) can I look at a Nikon D200 then sorry don't have one in stock ( tells me some one wanted a look just before me) could be two lost sales here . Now tell me why are high street shops going out of buisiness. |

Re: Nikon 50mm f1.8
For every disgruntled serious amateur who storms out of jessops, 10 people who want a 3mp compact for family snaps saunter in?

Re: Nikon 50mm f1.8
I went to both my local camera shops today - one had closed down and when I asked the young girl in the other if they had a hotshoe spirit level, all I got was "We don't do those" - probably beneath their price range

Re: Nikon 50mm f1.8
They barely make profit as it is, so the highstreet stores are being outdone, purely on the fact that the internet allows for cheaper business on their end before they sell...

Re: Nikon 50mm f1.8
Hahaha typical. But onestop digital sell them for less then the £89.
Rediculous though that if Jessops are doing so bad with the business that they won't reconsider there prices  |
