Pristine Condition Handycam

Bought a pristine Sony Handycam PC100 the other day. So rare to find this model in such perfect condition, really well refurbished and really good price too.

Amazing experience with SDS

Amazing experience with SDS. I purchased the Canon G7X, and the condition is perfect. Everything was as described, and delivery was so quick too! I got the camera for such a good price too - the cheapest I'd seen a G7X going for. I highly recommend!

My exeprience was good

My exeprience was good. The problem was the delivery, the product is still on delivery, but thia is not caused by SDS, but by italian Post delivery. When i will have the product i will leave my opinion about it. Actually i can say only that the service is great

Great service overall

Great service overall. The camera arrived exactly as described and the shipping was quick. The only thing I’d mention is that the camera could’ve used a bit more protection inside the box — when it arrived the outer box looked slightly flattened, which gave me a scare. That said, I suspect that may have been due to the postal service handling rather than the seller.

Only place I’ll go with anything camera related

Not my first time dealing with sds, this time they fixed the mic and tape deck on my canon xm2, they are always incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, I wouldn’t go anywhere else with anything camera related. I sure I’ll be using there services again and again!
Honestly the best

Excellent Service for My Sony VX1000

I had some issues with my Sony VX1000 and got it fixed by SDS. Very happy with the result, the price, and the smooth communication. I’ll definitely return if I need another repair or when it’s time to buy a new camera. Great to support a trustworthy small business!
