This is a normal post I've been doing plenty of research
(not all of it of the Pete Townshend variety before you ask), so I've got a good idea what a fair price is. I'm not short of other options either - Park Cameras is a five minute diversion from my daily commute.

I've bought kit from Jessops before, but only because they had it in stock at around market rate.

This is a normal post Park Cameras is an awesome shop
One of the best stocked camera shops I have ever been to

This is a normal post I have something of a love/hate relationship with the place
I love going there but when I leave my wallet is either lightened or cowering in fear at some Very Expensive Plan.

This is a normal post I went to B&H on a work trip to pick up a load of gear
It is a truly horrible experience. Really, really fucking horrible.

This is a normal post They succeed where Jessops failed though
The last Jessops I went to just came across as a shop full of point and shoot muppet cameras with the occasional entry level DSLR, and not a lot more, other than cheap, wobbly tripods you'll hate the moment you spent thirty quid ever buying. It shocked me more Jabbobs died first

This is a normal post B&H are great online
I would never go back to the shop. Trust me, it's a nightmare. They have a very strange production-line ethic to the way they run the shop. It is busy beyond your wildest dreams, the staff are unhelpful (or too busy), the layout is insane and the queues are profound. Also, I needed to go back to exhange on tiny bit of a fortune's worth of equipment we had bought, and it was extremely difficult to find anyone willing to help. On the plus side, they have a LOT of stuff.

This is a normal post Sorry for all my dramatic adjectives.
I probably would go back if I needed something specialist. But I wouldn't go in to browse.

Only if the exchange rates start to favour it again.
