1. The Trap of Online Marketplaces

If you list a high-end Canon EOS R5 or a specialized Professional Lens [عدسة احترافية] on Dubizzle or Facebook Marketplace, you immediately expose yourself to three major problems:

  • The “Last Price” Lowballers: You will receive dozens of messages demanding a 50% discount before they even inspect the equipment.
  • Security Risks: Meeting strangers with thousands of dirhams worth of professional gear is inherently risky.
  • Wasted Time: Flaky buyers who fail to show up cost you valuable time that should be spent on commercial shoots.

"I recently took my Canon EOS 650D to Cam to fix a problem. Drooped it off. 2 hrs later the technician calls and says: All fixed. Dust on the turn-on switch. Minimal charge. I cannt recommend Cam City enough. Highly professional. Fast. Cost effective. As they say on their web-site. If you take the camera to the retail store, they will simply send it to a 3rd party technician. Always better to go to the source and deal with the guys who do the fixing. 5 stars."
