I've been wanting to get a film camera for a long time, finally decided to do it while on vacation…read more We looked up several camera shops but it seemed that most were closed or super pricey. As someone who was just getting into film, I wasn't ready to spend upwards of $700 on a camera. We found this shop on Google and decided to stop in. It's a small spot, filled with cameras and equipment. There was one other girl there grabbing more film. We didn't catch the guys name but I'm assuming he was the owner. He was very sweet and helpful from the minute we came in. I didn't know what I was looking for so he asked some questions, what did I want to take pictures of, stuff like that, and then pulled out three cameras. He walked me one by one through what the differences are of each. I ended up going with a Minolta SRT-201. He showed me how to shoot for different lighting, and how to put the film in. It was very reasonably priced. I got the camera and two lenses for $275. He told us we can come back to get the film developed and we can pick up physical prints or he can email it to us. He clearly loved what he did and wanted to share that passion.

Wonderful service & fair price for a lovely early 80s film camera! The owner was so kind & helpful,…read moreincluded a flash mount, new batteries, & strap for me and we talked for over half an hour--gave me a full lesson on how to use the camera's features and cleaned it before selling. Great selection too--can't recommend it enough, I'll be back to get film and tips from him.

Call me vain, but I was not ready to look at myself in that piece of ID for the upcoming years looking like that. So I waited that this studio was ready to open. Desinfectant was at the door, spots on the floors were there to help with physical distancing and the 2 ladies that were working were super welcoming and also very surprised that I was the 9th customer coming for the exact same picture, I guess everybody took this time off to update their paperwork. They used proper lighting and light diffusers and showed me several takes to choose from. Honestly all of them were perfect. The difference between the old photo and the new one is huge. I believe I look more handsome in that photo than in real life lol. Great photo studio!

Kant did a great job printing our big hang-on-the-wall wedding photos. Nice, heavy archival photo…read morepaper. Good, crisp image quality. We're quite happy with the result. Their online uploading service was quite convenient and we had no difficulties with placing our order online. We wanted a custom size since we had already bought frames & mats and 10 x 13 wasn't one of the offered sizes, but they were able to accommodate our request (made online in the comments section).

Grab a coffee and get ready to hear the story of the most unprofessional business transaction ever…read more Here's my story, upon hearing it, I hope you guys can learn from all the headaches I've endured with this company. 1) Placed an order on their webpage on a regular priced item, entered all payment detail. Nothing is shipped on the promised ship date. Days later, received an email from the probable owner of the store that they actually don't have the model in stock and there is no ETA on the arrival date of next batch. Furthermore, when and IF it finally arrives, the price on the webpage was too low and needs to be raised by $25 for no reason besides "The price has gone up and we can't control it". The owner didn't even apologize or acknowledge that this practice is complete BS. 2) Various emails were exchanged to express my dissatisfaction of the situation. He explained the difficulties of keeping track of his +1 million dollar inventory and the fact that since they're selling it below the MSRP of the product, its fair game to raise it (ya because everyone knows that as long as the price of something you buy is lower than the MSRP of the producut, everyone is getting a killer deal). 3)Finally I agreed on the higher price and unknown ETA because of the fact that I would rather pay a couple of bucks more to support a Canadian business over foreign businesses. HERE'S THE ICING ON THE CAKE: he was nice enough to inform me that the new quoted price is not a firm price anymore! It might go up even more when it actually arrives because his supplier might charge him "fuel surcharge increase, ship rate increase, exchange rate increase and so on, the retail price will reflect any of these increases." (THESE ARE HIS ACTUAL WORDS!) 4) Gave up and bought the same model from another Canadian model store located in Toronto. For the same price as when I bought it originally from the GPM website. I don't know anyone who would've even gone past point 1 before cancelling the order. The level of frustration I received from this store is unimaginable. Please just avoid the possible headaches and avoid these guys at all cost. No wonder they have over 1 million dollar of stocks available. Who would ever buy anything from these guys is beyond me!?

Amazing store. My family has been shopping at Grand-Prix Miniatures for over 9 years. They have an…read moreamazing selection of F1 merchandise. You can spend hours in the store looking at all their car models and the clothing. They have a nice selection of clothing for children. A must visit store for any F1 fan! The owner and the sales people are very nice and very helpful! They always go out of their way to help. Their prices are very competitive. My family and I love this store. I have many friends that come from Toronto and the US to shop here especially during the Grand Prix weekend.
