canon have an official reconditioned shop on ebay, or at least they did, try that.

other than that, there isnt really any was to reliably purchase s/h goods of this nature, you have to trust the seller and know what you are buying.

Your location says suffolk - if youre in london much the there's a couple of decent shops that I/friends have used near Holborn. One is called aperture (think its on a road named something like museum street) the other (canon specialist) is on a road parallel to it. Comparable to eBay prices once you've haggled a bit and I always feel you have more comeback with a real life shop.

Just had a look on their website, looks good.

Macmilm, this'll give you an idea of prices they sell at...
