# Nicely done.
Shame, though. Not that I've used Jessops since getting a digital camera.

# Yes it is a shame..
I have a 3yr guarantee on my system compact from there :(
(I helped save b3ta! paranoiaman, Sat 12 Jan 2013, 18:29, archived)
# The extended warranties are with Domestic & General.
Check your policy - if it's with them then it's still covered regardless of how fucked Jessops are.

Sad to see another high street store close it's doors, and i'm gutted for the staff, but i'm hardly suprised to be honest. Their prices weren't that competative for the products they stocked, and the ease now days to find a good price for something on the internet is obvious. Even for printing it's cheaper on the internet using someone like snapfish.

The products they still stocked were hardly of interest to the serious photographer either, even at some of their central London branches, I haven't been in one for years.

Now days I shop at Park Cameras who stock everything short of the Canon CN lenses, though they can get them as a special order item, or B&H in New York for stuff you can't get in the UK.

# I bought a sling camera bag from them on Boxing Day
Cheapest price online was Amazon at £49.79, Jessops were £49.99 (and I could pick it up the same day).
20p more to have it the same day was a bargain.

Good thing I'm happy with it though, returning it would be a bastard now.

# If anyone spots Jessops selling stock on eBay like Argos do, or similar, do post a link on /links, eh, purty please?
I'm after a 5D mk II for around a tenner.

And thank the gods of fuck for something that isn't the thousand-tey-millionth rendition of a the same Kate Middleton gag =)
