From recommendation from Tony, I went to Colonial Photo and Hobby, just to check it out. Was a really small store with one half hobby and the other photo-related stuff. Pretty cramped, but really nice british salesman that I talked to.
Should I ask what you mean by british.... Most people use that term if they can't tell whether a person is scotish, irish, welsh or english. In fact I know one Swedish girl that's been called English after living in birmingham for 3 years, she spoke with a brummy accent, poor girl.
He would have paid 6.5% sales tax on the camera here. Non-refundable to tourists. -- Tony Cooper - Orlando FLSandmanWhisky-dave
Prices weren't really good though,
If you'd been in the UK you would have been able to get the VAT (20%)back that's usually included in the shown store price but you'd have to let them know that it's for export.
