Some back story. I have been going to Camera Co-Op for about 7 years and have had most good experiences. I have spent THOUSANDS,,,,not hundreds,,,THOUSANDS of dollars in this store, $5,000.00 in the last 2 years. Having said that I thought I had a good relationship with the store and they gave me deals and in turn I did not buy on-line to save money, instead I paid more at their store out of loyalty,,,well NO MORE! The last 3 times I have been in the store I have had sales people RUN from me when I came in and I finally found out why. I was told by a photographer friend that uses the store that I was being made fun of and laughed at because I "talk too much" while there. And that they did not like talking to me. I say OK, fair enough. I will buy my Canon 1D Mark III and ALL other items form on-line retailers. I will NEVER use this store EVER again. The store is full of itself and becoming arrogant with the collapse of other camera stores in the area. The know they are the only game in town and it is starting to show it's ugly side. Take care Camera Co-Op..,.........Scott Evans has left the building!
Pros: None really
Cons: Apathetic staff, arrogant and condesending, terrible parking

I bought some film and a filter accessory from this establishment on 8/18/2007. The bearded gentleman who helped me was thoroughly knowledgeable and helpful in helping me make my purchases. After completing my sale, I heard him and another gentleman (the younger bearded gentleman) make some uncharitable remarks about me under their breath, while I was about 6 feet away from them. This was thoroughly unprofessional behavior, the kind that sours one from patronizing an otherwise outstanding camera store in the future. While Houston Camera Exchange are rude to your face, a few of the clerk at Camera Co-op I presume save their snide remarks after you've completed the sale. Lame.
Pros: relatively competitive pricing on used gear
Cons: somewhat snide, unprofessional staff
