M W Classic Cameras - London

Tagora Man

Dishonest vendor

Ordered several cameras on the web site.
After a couple days the order was set to ‘completed’. No goods, no tracking number, no response to enquiries. Had to get my money back via Visa. He can no longer accept paypal on the website, that is telling...

Skears Photographic

Ordered an item on 24th December so was expecting a slight delay but almost a month later still no item. Emailed - no reply. Called several times, finally someone answered - promised to send it out. Two weeks later still nothing. Will have to submit a claim with my bank!

Shaun De Cruz

Attempted to purchase a Carl Zeiss 50mm F1.4 QBM. Credit card function on website would not work for some reason so purchased via bank deposit. The product never arrived. Despite numerous phone calls and emails they will not refund the money.

For the many other victims here, I suggest reporting the fraud to actionfraud.police.uk. Perhaps if enough people report, there may be a response.

Fox Rusty

Like many cases on here, placed the order via website, no confirmation email, no reply on email/watapps, no call answer on their company line. The only way to contact him is to call multiple times via watapps call.

He said he can not find the camera and will issue a refund which will took 3 days, a month after check with the bank and nothing happened, has to deal with VISA for the long refund process, card company asked for proof on purchase since there is no confirmation email after the order placed, lucky enough I did a screen shot while I paid for the order.

I am sure the card company will found similar cases has been happened multiple time on this company, I am not sure how comes he can still in the business and without any legal problem, it is a pure scam!

Franck Lartigue

Fuyez !!!
Communication parfaite : il est toujours très conciliant et dit qu'il va envoyer la commande ... mais j'attend depuis 6 mois !!!

... ne pas commander !!!

Chris Fletcher

Don’t go near this place, which appears to be one guy. Paid for a camera. No acknowledgement. Phoned and was told it had already been sold on eBay. Despite multiple promises for a refund nothing happened. My credit card company were good and refunded me. I hope they get the money back but it looks like this is an established pattern. Why do I have to give one star to post this review? Totally corrupt dealer

Andrea Bertuzzi

I feel I should add my experience with them to weigh against all the negative feedback.

I have sold to and bough from them several times and David has always been very friendly and helpful. Their pricing is very fair and the listed conditions usually accurate.

HOWEVER I have only ever dealt with them in person by visiting their office/warehouse. I would strongly recommend doing so if at all possible. The place is a photographica hoarder’s paradise! The amount of stock this tiny business deals with at any one time is staggering and probably the reason why there have been mishaps with web orders. But if you can make the trip in person, you’re golden.

David Walter

Like many of the people posting reviews here, I made a purchase (back in April) and nothing happened for ages. Eventually I called David who explained that one of the lenses in my purchase wasn't available and, because it had been so long, I asked for a full refund which David said he would process. I gave him a long time to get it done and have spoken to him again since it didn't appear, when he claimed he had issued it and would chase it up. I have now started a claim through Barclaycard. He is very friendly to talk to on the phone. Don't be fooled...
