They seem to be really cheap for cameras. Are they ok to deal with? Good service, trusted etc ?

From an online review

A terrible company. They take your money immediately but do not send the goods. There are many complaints on the web about them. I only wish I had checked them out first, but they give the appearance they are linked with Amazon. Avoid them at all costs! I just hope I get my money back. Also, they have a UK web address, but it is a sham. They are actually based in the USA.

from AVforums, it looks like they send out cameras without chargers/ cards etc too. Stear well clear.

Cheers for that Andy. I'll give them a miss. Thought the prices were too good to be true

Lots of there items are imports too.

'We offer our superior prices by sourcing our products from around the world. The product received may not necessarily be the UK version of the product that was ordered, it will however, be the exact same camera. Crazy Cameras will match the manufactures warranty and extend it for the entire 12 months from the date of purchase. We cover replacement/repairs at no additional cost to the end customer. This way, our customers get the best price and the best support.

To minimize our cost, we have hosted our distribution facilities in the United States. We can quickly source our products from around the globe and post them to the UK.'

That means that you get clobbered with import tax too then probably. It suddenly stops being such a bargain after that!
