I shopped there too around that time.  Henry's is no longer a "relatively small 
shop", and the last time I was there I wasn't too impressed with either the 
attitude or the prices.  YMMV, but they keep listing the same stuff on eBay for 
the same prices, which never seems to sell.  For example, I was looking for a 
bracket for a Rollei E36 RE flash.  They listed one, but at what I considered 
to be a unattractive price.   I finally got one much cheaper on evil-Bay, and 
shipped from the UK it was considerably cheaper.  I mean, how big a market is 
there for those?  You'd think if they listed the same item over and over and 
over, they'd get the idea.
