I bought a used Fujifilm camera online from RCE Foto Lyon and everything went very smoothly. The delivery was quick and careful, communication via email was constant, the camera was in impeccable condition and exactly as described. The only downside was not being able to track the purchase on the website. I highly recommend them! Thanks to the whole team 👋

RCE is a chain that sells used photographic equipment. Lainate is one of their locations. I've been using them for some time now and have generally been satisfied. If you keep an eye on their website, you can find some good deals.

First purchase from them, the lens described as "with normal signs of use". It arrived perfect, perfectly clean and packaged. The slight signs of use referred to some small marks on the tripod mount (minimal marks that I challenge anyone not to cause when first mounting a lens of this weight onto a tripod). Used for a full day, it worked perfectly. They answered the phone with kindness and professionalism. Buying from a private individual I might have been able to get a slightly lower price, but not with the two-year warranty!! If I ever need other material, I will definitely buy from them again! Excellent experience!

I purchased a Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art with a Pentax mount. RCE Bologna's customer service exceeded my expectations. Same-day shipping. Unfortunately, I had a small local issue with the delivery, but the store called me and quickly contacted the courier for a new delivery date. I haven't taken any shots with the lens yet, but the K3 III welcomed it. Overall, a great experience.
