I found that maxsaver.net has B+W MRC filters at really good prices. It seems they ship out of Hong Kong. Resellerratings.com shows hit and miss.

1. Anyone buy from these guys? Are they selling legit B+W filters or are they knock-offs?

2. If I buy a B+W filter and there's a warranty issue, anyone know if Schneider would care where it's purchase?

Thanks

hvstar became maxsaver.
I've bought a bunch of Hoya filters from them and they are legit. I'm sure others have bought B+W filters from them without problems as well.

Not sure about the warranty issue though.

Bought a few b+w filter, Hoya polarizer and a flash from them. Great company. It does some time to ship though from HK to here. Must be patient.
