Yes I know that you can go on Amazon or Ebay but there is so many sellers. Just wanted to know if there is a trusted seller or from who you got yours. Feel free to add a link, thanks.

amazon and ebay are both trusted sellers

usually one with 99% feedback from 1000+ people would give you some sort of reassurance that they can be trusted

Anything from Amazon that says "Fulfilled by Amazon" I tend to trust a lot. Never really had a problem with Amazon at all.

If you get a bad one, just contact Amazon and return it, they'll send you a new one.

Always buy from Amazon (sold or fulfilled by).

I got my Yongnuo from ThePhotoGadget - had some issues with the courier (ParcelFarce screw up), and the flash failed after a month, but I can't fault their service and support - even answering emails out of hours and bank holidays.

Takes a while to get to/from China, but if I was going to buy another Yongnuo I'd buy from them again without a doubt.

I have purchased from the Yongnuo store on Ebay. They provide a 1 year warranty, and thus far I have had no issues. http://stores.ebay.com​/hkyongnuophotoequipme​nt (external link)

I haven't paid much attention to which vendor is chosen when I buy from Amazon, and I've never had a problem.

^^^ Yes.. and right now they seem to have the lowest prices too.... The only issue is the shipping time. Since they ship from Hongkong, it takes some time to get here to the USA.

I've also bought directly from yongnuo but the shipping from China can take several weeks
