What customers say
Wow - what a place! Have you ever walked into the store and began literally shaking with excitement? The vintage nook is practically a museum in its own right. Walls and walls full of new and used gear. Prices are perfectly reasonable and inline with online prices.
Went to get photos from a disposable camera after a miserable experience at Walmart (took over two months to get photos back) and WOW. The difference in service and quality was shocking. Everyone at Murphy’s Camera is welcoming, helpful, and trustworthy. I didn’t have to worry about anything.
I was at Murphy’s yesterday (6/23), and had the most LOVELY experience. The workers there are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They don’t pressure you to shop outside of your price range, and are willing to answer any questions you have regardless of how simple.
We just started doing business with Murphys. Omar, and the young lady answering the phone are very efficient, knowledgeable and just very pleasant to work with. We travel 1.45 hours now to do business with them and only them. Great experience.
