Excellent...buy with 110% confidence. They are in e-bay as well...get the extra % discount using "Mrrebate". Their other name is Buydig.

I had no problem that I could remember as I still buy from them...otherwise, I would have switched. Other may have issues, but I am only speaking from my experiences, sorry.

They use to sell more Pro gear at BeachCamera, bought from them all the time. Good people, good store. I'm in the east coast so they ship out from New Jersey.

Purchased before with no problems, but the last order I placed with them kind of pissed me off. Placed a next day order for a 1dmk4. Website said was in stock. Called to make sure everything was good with my credit card and was told it went through Okay. Didnt ship out that day or the next. Called in and after being on hold for a while was told the camera was never in stock and it would take a few more days for them to receive it.

Have switched to Adorama since, had my camera the next day.

i bought quite a bit of items from them a few years back. But started having problems with them since last year. They started sent out items late (4, 5 working days after i paid) or sent me (supposedly new) opened items (70-200mm f/2.8 ii)... I don't buy anything from them any more.

I have tried almost all the big internet companies on line (B&H, Adorama, Aasavings, Beach,...) and pretty much stay with B&H now. All others (including Adorama) are not consistent, they are just good for awhile then start to get cheap and cut cornors or get slower with shipping...
