Goodbye to my old Cameras

I had a collection of Olympus cameras and lens which at 90 I no longer use. I found 'Recycle@ ,sent in a list of the gear and almost by return got an acceptable offer together with a pre paid post Label . I boxed it up and posted Friday morning and by Tuesday morning the money was in my bank,
Couldn't have been easier and I now have some cupboard space!

I have just completed a transaction…

I have just completed a transaction selling a set of video cameras to Camera Recycle. Throughout the process the company was efficient, courteous and helpful. It was a pleasure to do business with them.
The price I got for these cameras, that are now redundant as far as I am concerned, was very fair and I was pleased with the outcome.
We'll done Camera Recycle

Ideal way too dispose of old Cameras!

I contacted Camera Recycle Ltd after finding old cameras that had been in a cupboard for years. I took photos and sent the necessary information. I couldn't believe how quickly I had a response from Louis with an offer depending on their assessment on receipt. I was a bit dubious about sending them with the postage paid label but within 24 hours I was contacted with the higher end of the quote and once agreed the monies were in my account within two hours. Great service, thank you!

Old cameras in a cupboard…

I had some old cameras in a cupboard and decided I should move them on. I found Camera Recycle on line and sent them details of what I had. Got a very quick response and and a decent offer (subject to examination of condition). They covered all postage costs - both ways if I decided not to accept the offer! I agreed and money was in my account within 24 hours. Great and efficient service all the way.

We had camera equipment that belonged to a family member who has since died, and wanted somewhere to pass on tge cameras on. After a search we cane upon camera recycle ltd. From our first contact to our last tge service has been great. They even paid postage for sending the equipment to them and we got a good price. Would highly recommend them for recycling and cameras & equipment.

What a pleasure it was to use Camera Recycle, the whole process from start to finish was so proffesional, quick and easy to use. Louis was very prompt in replying to emails with quotes and posting labels. The final figure was within the quote range after they had recieved and examined my items and money was in my account within 24 hours. Would highly recommend Camera Recycle to family and friends.

Highly recommended, first class customer service.

I was very impressed with the very quick response. I submitted my enquiry one day and they replied within 24 hours. The submission form was easy to complete and to attach my camera photos. I received my quote the next day which was based on the photos pending inspection. I then received a pre paid label to send my cameras. I was delighted to receive a reply back within 3 days, my cameras had been inspected and I was offered the top end of the quote. I was just delighted and immediately accepted the offer. The service was just top notch and I cannot fault them at all, I would certainly recommend and use them again.

Easy Stress Free Process

Very pleased with how straight forward the process was for selling 2 old cameras. I can see now why Camera Recycle has so many 5 star reviews. I filled in a quick online request for a quotation and attached a couple of photos of the cameras one evening. By midday the following day I had already received a fair quote by email from Louis along with straight forward instructions. I posted the cameras off free of charge at my local Post Office. Shortly after they arrived at Camera Recycle Louis confirmed everything was in order and requested my payment details. Approximately half an hour after sending my details the money was in my account.

The whole process was very professional…

The whole process was very professional and easy to complete. After submitting photos and details of the equipment a fair price was offered and agreed, postage was paid by camera recycle and I simply boxed and sent the items by Royal Mail with payment into my account within a couple of days. Highly recommend this company and very happy with the service received.

Giving old camera equipment a new life

I submitted a list of equipment that I no longer needed via the Camera Recycle Ltd website and received an estimate by email the following day, complete with clear details of how to proceed.  All postage was paid for with an option to take the packaged items to the local post office or have the parcel collected from my address by Royal Mail.  I received confirmation of receipt, once Royal Mail had delivered the parcel and a final valuation following evaluation of the equipment by email.  Once I confirmed I was happy to proceed, payment was arranged and the money was in my bank account straight away.  Friendly, no pressure, efficient service offering competitive valuations on photographic equipment.  I would have no hesitation in using Camera Recycle Ltd again should I be in a position to do so.
