BCC is a class act, and one of the best. I dealt with them for many years, and always with Bob Gremagna, one of the two owners (this is not to say their other staff is not worthy!). I don't even know where to start when it comes to this store.

Trade-ins, consignment, purchases- all first rate.

Bob sold me my first Nikon D1, with a bunch of Nikon F4 35mm and Bronica 2 1/4" gear in trade, then a D1X, with the D1 in trade. He took all my old Beseler darkroom equipment on consignment, and I was very happy with what I got for it. I knew what the stuff was worth, and never felt cheated.

Heck, I bought an old, beat up Nikkormat EL from them for my collection. It worked great! There's almost to much to recall.

When I needed a small point and shoot digital camera, Bob knew much better than I did, and pulled out this Olympus model that I first thought was too big, yet it fit in my pocket. It had pro features, and Bob said, "I know what you need, Lou". He was right! That camera, even at "only" 5.5 mega pixels remains in use to this day! That's got to be 8 years! Whoa!! I love that Olympus, Bob!

Now that I live in Florida, I will miss my visits to BCC, but I can assure you that they remain every bit the class act that they always will be.

Best wishes to BCC.
