Buying from Badger Sales Inc.

[Helmetfire]

Hello all.

I have decided it is time to try my hand at "real" photography, and have got my eye on a Tachihara 45GF setup from Badger Sales Inc, (http://www.badgergraphic.com/store/c..._detail&p=137). I'm in the UK, and the cost of all this equipment from Badger is about the same as I'd pay for the camera alone here. Now; before I get in touch with them to get an idea of the Air-Mail shipping cost, I need to know if any of you out there have any experience of this company.

So it's over to you.

Thanks in advance,
Chris.

I myself have not heard of any problems with Badger, they hold a very high reputation in the camera business and lots of people purchase from them, you might do a search using the term Badger Graphics and you will be provided with several different posts about their company.

I wholeheartedly recommend this company without hesitation. I have made many purchases from them over the last 10 years and never had a single problem. Friendly, knowledgeable service, prompt shipping and great prices. When you call, ask for Jeff. He's their large format specialist and will gladly answer all of your questions.

Badger has been great with me. Reasonable shipping. Good products.

I bought my Shen-Hao HXZ45A-II from them almost two years ago. Since that time I have also made a few smaller purchases, like cable releases and Satin Snow ground glass. Very reliable, and quite reasonable on prices.

Ciao!

I have purchased several new and used lenses from Badger and have always been completely satisfied. One of the few businesses that I can wholeheartedly recommend without reservation.

Also bought my 4x5 Shen-Hao at Badger and get some of my film there to. Very quick to ship and great service.

I just received a new Tachihara from Badger after waiting over a month for their latest shipment to arrive from Japan. Jeff was a pleasure to deal with, and though he was often difficult to reach by phone (Jeff is a busy guy), he responded to most emails within minutes. My order arrived well packed with no surprises. I'll gladly order from Badger in the future.
