Eurotech Camera Service

After reading the reviews I expected that this shop would do good repairs at a great price. The price was neither great nor bad. It was about average. The repair was effective (I had only a simple problem that just required cleaning, and had I owned the proper size ring spanner necessary I would have done the job myself).
In terms of price and doing what he says he will do, everything is ok.
But — if you have a day job like most people it can be next to impossible to drop off your camera or pick it up. This place is open from only 10am to 4pm. And actually, most of the time that’s not even true. The shop is often closed during the hours it is supposed to be open. The other people in the building seem to be used to people stopping by expecting to drop off or pick up equipment only to find he’s closed up shop early or gone missing. Would be nice if he would leave a sign saying he had to close early or went off to lunch. My camera was repaired the same week I dropped it off, but it took another full week of me stopping by every day before I finally caught him and was able to pick it up! A big waste of my time and gas.
I had hoped that since this shop is close to where I live it’d be time saving for me to have repairs done here instead of driving way north or having to mail items out, but in the end it took so long to get my stuff back I may as well have mailed it somewhere else.
Five stars on the repair then, four on price, and one star on convenience.

THE WORST SERVICE EVER! I dropped my camera off in March of 2014 and just decided to drop in today (July) to see if it was fixed. Not only did the OWNER not have any recollection of my camera, but he tried to blame his lack of organization on me not calling to check on the status. There’s junk every where and it looks like this guy doesn’t stay on top of his work. Buyers beware!!!

I love this place. Sorin is the best. He ‘s super nice, has wonderful pricing, and has a great little shop. I highly recommend him. FYI he only takes cash or check. The pricing is amazing though. My camera is an old slr (a pentax ME super) from the 70s, but the lady who was in line in front of me had a newer camera and he was giving her advice on the motherboard etc so I’m assuming he can fix all cameras. I’ve been telling all my friends about him and will use him in the future for sure.

Although it took me nearly a year to get the camera I brought in repaired, I am still giving this guy a big «good» rating. He specializes in old cameras, film cameras, and is just one man in a shop with short hours (m-​f 10a-​4pm)… I brought in a Kodak Tourist with a sticking shutter, and the camera itself has one of the most notoriously unreliable, and also incredibly difficult to fix Synchro Rapid 800 shutter. After a few months of his trying to find replacement parts, he did attempt to make repairs, but finally let me know that he was unable to fix what I had. In the meantime, I had acquired another Tourist with the same shutter, and it was having some different issues, so, when I went to pick up the basket case, he suggested leaving the «newer» camera as well as the old… within a week, I got a phone call that he was able to use the parts from the basket case to make the needed repairs, and provided me with a fully functioning, thoroughly cleaned camera with a 3 month warranty for his work, at less than his original repair quote, which is not bad for a 60 year old camera!
