In this paper we address the problem of estimation of the common location parameter of several exponential distributions. We assume that the scale parameters are all unknown and possibly unequal. From a decision theoretic point of view we suggest a wide class of estimators dominating the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) under a class of convex loss functions.
