About mpb.com

History

MPB was founded in Brighton, England, in 2011 by Matt Barker. It has grown into an international online platform for buying, selling and trading used photography and videography equipment, with operations serving markets including the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States.

Product Types

MPB buys and sells used digital cameras, mirrorless cameras, DSLR cameras, lenses and professional video equipment. Its inventory also includes selected accessories such as lens adapters, flash equipment, tripods and camera supports. Customers can purchase equipment, sell eligible gear directly to MPB or trade it toward another purchase.

Target Audience

MPB serves photography enthusiasts, students, content creators, filmmakers and working professionals seeking used equipment at a lower cost than comparable new gear. It also appeals to photographers and videographers who want to sell unused equipment, fund an upgrade or make more resource-conscious purchasing decisions.

Unique Selling Points

MPB purchases equipment directly from customers and resells it rather than operating as a peer-to-peer marketplace. Its specialists inspect equipment, assign condition grades and provide photographs of individual items, helping buyers assess the specific piece they are considering. Warranty coverage and return options provide additional reassurance, although terms vary by market. Its buy, sell and trade model supports equipment reuse and makes changing camera systems or upgrading more accessible. Affiliate marketers interested in promoting MPB through Sovrn Commerce should join Sovrn to check current merchant availability, regional eligibility and applicable terms. A Sovrn account provides access to thousands of merchants, but MPB's current availability and immediate access cannot be independently confirmed here.

Commission Structure

Current MPB commission rates through Sovrn Commerce could not be independently verified. Do not assume a fixed percentage or that buying, selling and trading equipment all generate commissions. Join Sovrn Commerce and check MPB's current merchant listing for availability in your market, eligible transactions, commission rates and validation terms before publishing earnings claims.

Cookie Duration

MPB's current cookie duration through Sovrn Commerce could not be independently verified. Check the applicable attribution window and tracking conditions in Sovrn Commerce rather than relying on an unconfirmed duration.

Special Features

  • Getting started is straightforward through Sovrn Commerce: create a Sovrn account to explore merchant access, including MPB where available. Access to individual merchants can depend on publisher approval, geography and current merchant participation.
  • Use Sovrn Commerce's supported linking tools to direct readers to relevant MPB pages where permitted. Confirm that individual product pages and regional storefronts support monetization.
  • MPB's individual used-equipment listings can make condition-specific recommendations valuable, but availability and prices can change quickly. Check destinations frequently and avoid promising continued stock.
  • No current MPB-specific affiliate-exclusive promotions, commission boosts or special incentives through Sovrn Commerce could be independently verified. Confirm any offer's dates, eligibility and permitted messaging before promoting it.
  • Review MPB's applicable terms within Sovrn Commerce for paid search, trademark bidding, coupon promotion, email, social media and other traffic-source restrictions. These merchant-specific permissions could not be verified.
  • Clearly disclose affiliate relationships and accurately describe equipment condition, pricing, returns and warranty terms for the relevant MPB market. Avoid implying that commissions are guaranteed; attribution, cancellations, returns and transaction validation can affect earnings.

Unique Products

MPB specializes in individually listed used photography and filmmaking equipment rather than exclusive own-brand products. Its inventory can include discontinued camera bodies, specialist lenses, and professional equipment that may be difficult to find new. Individual listings typically include photographs of the actual item, a condition assessment, and information about included accessories. Stock, condition grades, and prices vary by item and regional marketplace.

Marketing Tips

Content Ideas

  • Create used-camera buying guides for beginners, enthusiasts, and professionals, highlighting MPB's focus on buying, selling, and trading used photography and videography equipment.
  • Publish budget-based kit recommendations, such as a starter mirrorless setup, a wildlife photography kit, or a compact travel kit. Check current MPB inventory and prices before recommending specific items.
  • Compare used camera bodies and lenses across generations, explaining practical differences in autofocus, image quality, lens compatibility, and video capabilities.
  • Explain how to evaluate used equipment, including cosmetic condition, shutter count where provided, included accessories, and product photographs. Verify MPB's current regional warranty and return terms before quoting them.
  • Develop upgrade guides that explain MPB's selling and trading services alongside purchase recommendations. Do not imply that selling or trading generates an affiliate commission unless the applicable Sovrn Commerce terms explicitly confirm it.

Promotional Strategies

  • Use Sovrn Commerce as your access point for MPB affiliate opportunities. Joining Sovrn Commerce provides access to tools for monetizing content across thousands of merchants; confirm MPB's current availability, supported regions, and your account eligibility before publishing monetized links.
  • Place relevant Sovrn Commerce affiliate links within camera reviews, lens comparisons, and buying guides, close to the purchasing advice rather than in unrelated promotional blocks.
  • Target high-intent searches such as used mirrorless cameras, affordable portrait lenses, and camera upgrade comparisons, matching recommendations to readers' budgets and shooting needs.
  • Plan content around travel seasons, photography courses, gifting periods, and major camera launches, when readers may be considering equipment purchases or upgrades. Treat these as editorial opportunities rather than verified MPB sales peaks.
  • Promote only verified MPB offers available for the reader's region. Check Sovrn Commerce for any applicable merchant promotions, and do not promise exclusive discounts or commission boosts without confirmation.
  • Where permitted by the applicable terms, repurpose helpful reviews into social posts, videos, or newsletters with clear affiliate disclosures and appropriately placed Sovrn Commerce links.

Best Practices

  • Confirm MPB's live commission rate, attribution window, eligible transactions, geographic coverage, and promotional restrictions in Sovrn Commerce before estimating earnings; do not substitute unverified public figures.
  • Clearly disclose affiliate relationships near recommendations and links, following applicable advertising rules and platform requirements.
  • Refresh recommendations frequently because used-equipment availability, prices, condition grades, and included accessories can vary between individual items.
  • Use region-appropriate destinations and verify currency, shipping availability, warranty coverage, and return conditions for the intended audience.
  • Avoid unsupported claims about savings, environmental impact, product condition, or performance. Distinguish manufacturer specifications from your own testing and opinions.
  • Review the applicable Sovrn Commerce and merchant terms before using paid search, trademark keywords, coupon promotions, email campaigns, or incentives; do not assume these methods are permitted.
  • Monitor available click, conversion, and earnings reports in Sovrn Commerce to refine content. Allow for reporting delays, returns, cancellations, and commission adjustments when assessing results.

Target Audience

Ideal Customer

MPB appeals to adult photographers and filmmakers ranging from beginners and students to experienced enthusiasts and working professionals.

Relevant audiences include travel, wildlife, portrait, wedding, sports, and street photographers, alongside independent filmmakers and video creators. Customers often value detailed condition information, compatibility guidance, and the opportunity to extend the useful life of existing equipment.

  • Build Black Friday and seasonal value comparisons using verified current prices rather than assuming MPB offers event-specific discounts.
