I know this thread is dead old, but as a something of a Camberwell vet, I thought I'd share my experiences.
I've had positive and negative experiences at Edwardes. The staff seem to range from pretty stand-offish to very helpful. The owner guy (poss called Gary?) seems to have a bit of a chip on his shoulder. When I enquired about them fitting some parts I got 2nd hand elsewhere, he didn't seem so impressed that I hadn't bought parts from there - despite the fact that I was providing business for the workshop.
That said, another member of staff was a great help, very chatty, and outside the boss' earshot, told me what a bargain I'd got on said part on ebay.
On the flipside, on of the great things about Edwardes is that they seem to be happy to work metal. Another bike of mine (trial bike) had stripped brake threads on the frame, and they did a perfect job of helicoiling it all, for a very good price.
I'm not familiar with their roadies / fixie stock, but I'm thinking of getting a new track frame, so might call in this weekend for a browse.
