Things have changed a bit recently, Camera Exchange has moved 50m up
Lonsdale St. towards Michael's. Michael's "museum" is now open to anybody
who wants to go and have a look - well worth a visit. I can guess how the
cameras for the museum were acquired. Michael's has always been a bit of a
rip-off for used gear, pay you almost nothing for a trade-in, then resell at
50% higher than any other shop in the area.
