Royal Camera is also CCI camera city, Broadway photo, Digital Liquidators, and a few other storefronts. If the area code is 718 you can bet it's the same people. This operation is located in Brooklyn, N.Y. I live in Brooklyn and had seen these incredibly low prices and had thought about buying a lens a few years ago. The merchandise they sell is called " gray market " items which means they were intended to be sold in another country. They usually carry no manufacturers warranty, sometimes no instructions, or other accessories that might be had with an U.S.A version. Hence the low prices. I had called them thinking I would go in and pick it up myself and save the shipping charge. I was told that I had to make an arrangement and schedule a specific time that I would be there and had to bring cash. I also discovered that there is no store. This operation is run out of a private home, with the stock being kept in another garage down the road. There is no storefront. This is a totally shady operation and I'm not sure how they are around under all these different names. In my opinion, even if you can ultimately buy something and it comes to your door ok and you saved a few bucks, I feel I would not want my money going to support these shady characters, who are most likely not paying much or any taxes to the city. I rather keep the good guys in business.
Personally, I get all my gear and film from Adorama. I go to the store, located in N.Y.C and buy everything there. Great service and prices. They also have a very good website/store for online shopping. I have a link to them on my website, because i think they are worht recommending. Support the good guys and down with the bad.
