They just made me write my first review on a resllerratings...
I searched and searched for a retailer of any kind (both online and off) who had IN STOCK the canon 50mm f/1.8 II lens.
I eventually found these guys who were selling it for a medicore price. It is $20 cheaper at B&H, but because of the fact that i couldnt find it at all and these guys said they had it in stock i decided to spend the extra cash on it.
I placed my order and carried on with my day, i get home and check my email for possible information on the order.
In my inbox is an confermation email, as well as a delay alert.
The lens that their site lists as "in stock" was indeed not instock and would take 5-7 buisness days before it would be shipped.
Extreamly annoyed i called their cost. service dept. I explain to them over the phone what i just did to you and i hear a click.
I call back and inform the person that i was just hung up on, he then says "ok what can i hlep you with" again inform him of the issue at hand and he puts me on hold for roughly 3 mins and comes back with the following reply:
"I'm sorry sir but this product is currently on back order and will not be made avalible until the middle of next week"
I asked him why the hell they would say it was in stock on their site then to which he informs me that:
"There was a limited supply first come first serve"
I placed the order at 5:30 AM!
And 10 mins ago i checked to see if they still had it as in stock, and sure enough 12 hours later...it is still listed in stock
I've yet to write a review an any company, this is my first. It will not be my last, i owe B&H a praise review.
