If he’s happy with the price they are good people to deal with in my experience.Anyone used them for selling used equipment? My brother in law is looking to sell his Canon R6 and 24-240mm f4-6.3 mm RF lens. He has had a reasonable quote from Park Cameras, who supplied the equipment new, which is quite a bit higher than the quote from MPB.

How do they compare to MPB in their pricing ?+1
I found Park to be good when I sold some kit to them a few months ago.
Generally better. If I am selling kit such as a camera body or lenses, I get quotes from a range of places as you will probably get substantially different quotes for individual items. I go to MPB Parks,, WEX , Camerworld, LCE, Clifton, Jessops, Camera Jungle etc. It really is worth the short time it will take your brother in law to do so on line. You either get quotes straight away or no more than 24 hours later. All pick up from home just like MPB. As for MPB costs, I find them extremely poor these days.The last time I sold a camera and 3 lenses, I got almost £1000 more by getting multiple quotes.How do they compare to MPB in their pricing ?
Wow that's a big difference, the last couple of times I've gone to MPB, but I recently asked them for a quote on my mint low shutter count D850 and it was very poor indeed, so I'm guessing they have a much higher profit margin than the others. Thanks very much for the heads upThe last time I sold a camera and 3 lenses, I got almost £1000 more by getting multiple quotes.
