What customers say
Fire staff, fire cameras, I don't like the prices cuz I'm poor but I would protect this store with my life
Bought my first film camera from here several years ago & have been coming back to get film developed ever since, the staff have always been really nice & are always willing to help out whether it be in answering questions I have on film stock, or in helping check the battery level in my camera.
I've never written a review before, but this store and it's staff are so great that I have to. On multiple occasions I've come in to get camera advice/see if I can troubleshoot a camera that won't turn on, and every time they've been so friendly and helpful.
While a bit disheveled, with vintage camera equipment in totes and donations all over the place, it's a fun place to go to pick around. Also, the folks there are very friendly and know their cameras inside and out.
