USED CAMERA STORE?

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has made a purchase from keh.com "the photographers marketplace."

Yes, good people. Sometimes their prices are high though.

Thanks for the quick response. So do they clean sensors and check everything out before selling it?

Canon Mark IIN Prices;

EXT- $2,469.00
BGN- $1,899.00

Below is KEH's rating scale. Would you recommend going with the more expensive Mark 2N or less expensive one in a professional setting?

We believe that our grading system is the best in the industry and offers an option for every taste and budget. We strive to provide clear, accurate descriptions of each grade so you will know what to expect when you buy from us. When you trade or sell your equipment to us, we evaluate it using the same criteria. All used equipment is guaranteed to work, regardless of its cosmetic condition and is covered by KEH’s 60 day warranty.

NEW As packaged by manufacturer. Manufacturer’s USA warranty. Never used or owned by a consumer.
NEW DEMO As packaged by manufacturer. Manufacturer’s USA warranty. Never owned by a consumer but used as demonstration equipment. May show various stages of wear including slight dings or pecks.
LN "Like New" Perfect. Includes original box and instructions and any manufacturer provided accessories.
LN- "Like New Minus" 97-99% of original condition. Extremely slight wear that can only be seen upon very close inspection. Box and accessories not included.
EX+ "Excellent Plus" 90-96% of the original condition. Shows moderate wear. May have slight marks on finish. Glass very clean.
EX "Excellent" 80-89% of the original condition. Shows moderate wear. May have small dings, pecks and slight finish wear. Glass may have some dust, but no marks.
BGN "Bargain" 70-79% of original condition. Shows more than average wear. May have dents, dings and a goodly amount of brassing and finish loss. Glass may have marks that should not affect picture quality.
UG "Ugly" Very rough looking. Multiple impressions in metal, excessive finish loss and brassing are likely. Glass will have marks, fungus or haze that will probably affect picture quality.

You will find that KEH's EX is most peoples LN. I use them almost exclusively for all my camera purchases (7 or 8 bodies and countless lenses) and only one was below what I thought was advertised. KEH took the return and sent me a LN body for the same price. Great CS and honest to a fault. YMMV.

I just wish there was a way to find out how many actuations there are on KEH's cameras?

Wouldn't hesitate to buy from them for even a second.

A great company that I've dealt with many times over the years (though not recently). Never once was I disappointed. You pay a bit more but you never have to worry. I've found you can call and ask about specific listings.

Thanks so much guys for all the feedback!
