Sympathy for anyone who has vouchers, outstanding orders or course booked with them as it looks like you have lost your money. All shops closed and on line gone.

[Dave Schofield]

closed already? I thought the big sell off would begin?

Man there's a rip off merchant I'm glad to see the back of.

@serpantmedia And anyone who up until this evening worked for them.

[Steve Purcell]

@edpartridge yes anyone who lost there job
@chewyteeth I did expect some bargains but alas no

[Dave Schofield]

There old stock must be being auctioned off I guess, unless the companies been bought, I don't know the details.

Bit gutted - was my birthday yesterday and got given a gift card! Timing, eh? I was in there today at about 2 and they thought they would be open tomorrow (store manager). Apparently not!

[James Hislop]

I'm gutted for their customers but it might make way for more independent camera retailers back in our towns.

[Dave Griffiths]

The notice on Jesssops website looks pretty terminal; can't see much scope for anything to survive from the ashes.

[Dave Griffiths]

@jameshislop Doubtful. I think we've lost those for ever unfortunately but I hope you are right!

Just having looked at their website notice and having a bit of admin experience their stock will probably by auctioned off in big/bigger quants to other camera retailers by invite. You may see other retailers giving better offers. Also I dare say some stuff will make its way to eBay also.

@chewyteeth They are returning stock to manufacturers. No clearance sales :(
