Searching around for a Nikon 105mm Z micro lens Wilkinson Cameras came up with a very competitive price which I snapped up, next day delivery was within the one hour time slot, and I'm very happy. I'm not sure if I've bought from Wilkinson's before but I'll put them on my go-to list for the next time I need equipment.

I purchased a 30mm Olympus macro lens online at a very competitive price. Product was delivered very promptly and well packaged. Communication about my order was excellent and I was very confident about my order. Overall an excellent experience.

The website made it easy to order the camera I wanted, very pleased as it was at a very competitive price and I like to buy from my local (Liverpool) shop when price is competitive or there is an offer. I was telephoned within minutes to double check my order, very good service. Order was placed on a Friday and it arrived Monday, well packaged.

The purchase was an Epson Scanner and with the £100 rebate, it made a good deal. Purchase was straightforward online, and the website is OK, some UI issues but worked well enough and we selected the free delivery which states 3-4 working days. Placed our order Wed, 3 Jan, at 16:15ish and noted the website stated "Our order cut-off point for same-day dispatch is 3 pm Monday-Friday" - from that, we would assume dispatch would have been Thursday. Free delivery was advised as being a 3-4 working day service. Wilkinson Cameras states “Working Days” are Monday-Friday excluding any bank holidays. Thus our informed assumption was that the Scanner would be dispatched Thursday as we'd ordered after 3 pm the day before and a 3-4 working day timescale for delivery would expect to arrive Tues/Weds the following week. On Thursday we had a FedEx notification that delivery would be the day after, Friday, however, we were not going to be in on Friday and why we opted for the free delivery time scale. We asked FedEx to not deliver on Friday and they stated it would come on Monday, so we waited and it never arrived. When we got to speak to a second human on Monday we were told there was no new scheduled delivery but they would update it "tomorrow morning" (Tuesday Morning), or we could drive out to their depot to collect it... Not doing a 30+ mile round trip. Checked the Fedex website all Tuesday morning with no update so I had to call Fedex again (a painful process of automated call handling) and was told that it is likely to be scheduled for tomorrow (Weds) but to check the website again for further updates in the morning. And around the merry-go-round, we go... Not upset about the time taken to deliver, we eventually got the item on Wednesday as we'd originally expected. But the hassle to try and sort this when Wilkinson specifically stated 3-4 working day delivery and was given a next day service. We appreciate that may seem to be a better service but on this occasion, we had factored in the extra time and opted for the free delivery and it has been a headache to re-arrange. On the Monday, in frustration, we contacted Wilkinson Cameras and they said they'd update us, but we've heard nothing more. It does seem like a whinge, I get it, but what should have been a straightforward transaction and delivery became a bit of a saga. Also, the email with the tracking link takes you to a weird page on Wilkinson Cameras' website with just the tracking no. on it, odd. If you go to that same "tracking page" on a mobile, don't bother it's borked. See the attached image - some odd pop-up sort-of shows layered above the newsletter pop-up (pre-popped, which is so annoying...) and you cannot cancel either. That's on an iPhone 11 Max iOS 17.2.1 using Safari, Firefox and Chrome. Decent Price, decent co. just the attention to detail seems to be off. I'd use them again, but only if we couldn't find what we wanted elsewhere or for cheaper.

Good Afternoon Stuart, Thank you for the feedback. The order was placed on the 3 Jan 2024 16:09:47, this was indeed after our cut off with the order being processed and dispatched the following day. Parcels are generally placed on a service that ensures it spends less time with the courier thus lessen the risk of parcel being lost in the courier system. On the 5th Jan you had contacted us on live chat with regards to delivery and from checking with the courier the parcel was out for delivery that day, we had let you know that you could instruct the courier on what to do with the parcel which you had done and on the very same day the parcel was returned to the depot. On the 9th Jan you had emailed with regards to no updates from FedEx regarding the redelivery and had requested our help, we had contacted FedEx on your behalf to arrange for redelivery and were awaiting confirmation by the courier with regards to this before updating yourself. Standard shipment is generally 3- 4 working days as a guideline but can occasionally arrive earlier than that (sometimes later). An order confirmation/invoice and shipment email with tracking are emailed to the email provided on the order and we would advise that spam/junk folders are also checked just in case they end up in there. The courier will send sms/email notification with regards to updates on the parcel once it’s in their system so that should you not be in you are able to direct them on what to do should you not be in as our parcels will usually require a signature. Should customers have a specific day for wanting the parcels to arrive, they are able to contact us via phone/live chat/email and we would accommodate those requirements. https://www.wilkinson.co.uk/delivery-information We can see that the parcel was delivered the Wednesday 10/01/2024 at 17:01 and hope you do enjoy your new equipment. Kind Regards Wilkinson Cameras

Being in the market for a used Nikon D750 camera stumbled across a suitability priced model. Item ordered, when I received numerous emails keeping me up to date with deliver, and proof of purchase. Arrived in 2 days. Very happy with email response to a queries. Also 12 months warranty providing peace of mind. Full marks for their service.

I ordered a Canon R6 MK11 kit online just after Christmas, to my surprise it was delivered within 36 hours, well packaged. Just waiting for my cashback from Canon.

All seems good. Great price and prompt delivery. But had to get it delivered to a drop off point as I don't trust DPD as a parcel company. Things keep going missing with them. Please use a different company.

Thank you for your feedback, please note we use a few other couriers such as Parcel Force & FedEx (also Royal Mail for small items), you will get sms/email notification as we send via tracked method.

I recently made an online purchase of a small Kodak camera. There were no problems with the order, which actually arrived earlier than I had expected.
