Canon (not cannon btw) will not touch imports from pcs or any other non EU/UK supplier. They make it clear on their site if you'd like to check.
They usually won't touch your purchase even if you were willing to pay.

...products which are counterfeit or infringe the intellectual property rights of the Canon group of companies in any way (for example, including but not limited to parallel or
“grey” products) will not qualify....

Any warranty issues.....you are on your own mate.

Actually, mate, this isn't entirely true.

Oh, well, my bad, we live and learn.

Just take care of it - unlikely you would need to get a repair. Myself and colleagues have gone through many Canon bodies and never needed to take up a warranty.

Looks like pro shop has ceased trading (or been closed down) :j

I don't think it's the same.

That address is residential too. Probably just a mail forwarding service.

procamerashop.co.uk never were a registered UK company. (Their parent company is/was Smart Price Photo of Kowloon.)
