Hi all, well I was planning on getting another jessops own (actually made by Manfrotto) because I was so pleased with the current one I have.

Obviously now they have sadly dissolved, I probably won't be able to get one. I wonder where that sort of Jessops branded stock will end up?

Google brings up this
http://www.justforcameras.co.uk/Jessops-Ball-amp-Socket-Head-BH-40_i16044 but the site looks a bit shady to say the least?

Bit odd.

Anyway it just seems to be a site full of affiliate advertising links - clicking on the link for the ballhead takes you to the (now defunct) tradedoubler link for Jessops. But the way they have done it does not make this clear and makes it look like they are a shop themselves which is rather miselading/deceptive.
 
certainly some strange kind of marketing con website! Odd isn't it :/

Anyone know of other £20 heads that offer similar quality? I'm very impressed with this one.
 
I might have one i was bought last year but never used, if i can find it ill post it in the for sale section and let you know :)
 
That looks identical to the redsnapper one I have other than mine had a blank square sticker, no jessops logo. Suspect it's 100% the same thing. However it looks like they don't sell it any more.

TBH I hardly use mine as I found it a bit rubbish! Appears to have been replaced with this which looks far superior. £25 for an arca head is a really good price. Might have to get one as it's cheaper than the clamp I was going to get!
