Are Pixmania ok?
Anyone had any issues with them? In my search to find anyone at all who has the Sigma 10-20 and a decent returns policy i found them. They seem pretty ok.

I used them a few times when I couldn't find stuff in the UK. Their site showed the items were in stock but in each case (4 times) once I'd paid I got an email from them telling me they were out of stock, and it took ages for them to refund my card. Their customer services ladies sound good though!
EDIT: I've just seen Pixmania's price  £402!! That's over £100 more than some UK suppliers, and £80 more than most.This site looks promising... http://www.camerabox.co.uk/productDA...ProductID=1262

Pete, warehouse express £329.99 and walters photo video £339.99 are both uk based and by all accounts have good returns policies. Even Jessops have it for £369 so I can't see the benefit of buying one for £409 from france.
For myself once the christmas bonus comes in  I will be shopping at onestop./edit actually Camerabox look good too... Last edited by Steep; 28-10-2005 at 15:40. |

Pete,
A mate of mine is having sheds loads of trouble with this lot over a refund, as I type this reply he's on the phone talking to them now and it don't sound at all good so if I were you I'd stear well clear of them if I were you. |

ordered a DX7590 off pixmania over the net using my switch card-no problem ,got a confirmation Email saying everything was correct and the camera was being sent next day.............
Then a few minutes later got another Email saying the camera wouldn't be sent until I satisfied their security conditions-they wanted proof of credit card ownership,a driving license or passport and recent utility bills etc and if the delivery address was different to mine(it was) the same proof from whoever was to take delivery.....I told them I didn't have a scanner so how would I send the proof?... They told me to post all the relevant documents then when they were satisfied they would post them back!!..They expected me to send practically my whole identity(and the person who was going to sign for the delivery) thru the post to be viewed by persons unknown by me but wouldn't send me the camera they had already debitted my bank account for!...F****** nerve!!... The only good thing I would say about them was, when over the phone I told them to stick the camera where the sun doesn't shine,they put the money straight back in my account(I checked a few minutes later )..
