“B&H Photo”

Jacob g.
4/2/24

After many purchases from B&H I really trust them. I cancelled my amazon prime subscription because most items I would buy off amazon I can get from B&H, and I got tired of wondering if I was going to get a genuine product in the mail from amazon. They always have what I need(primarily photography equipment) at a reasonable price, pack it well for shipping, and ship fast. One of the few companies I would feel comfortable asking for purchasing advice.

“Urgent: Misdelivery Issue and Fraud Concerns”

Marco L.
12/4/24

My name is Marco, and I'm from Brazil. I made an international purchase on the B&H website on 11/26/24, with delivery scheduled for 11/27/24. I work in content creation and recording for the internet, and I purchased an SSL2 interface. The delivery address was in Kissimmee, FL. This order was to be brought to me by a friend. I tracked the delivery on the B&H website, and the package arrived on 11/27/24. I contacted my friend to confirm if everything was correct. To my surprise, the product didn't arrive. I checked the FedEx website and saw that the package had been sent to 166 Bristol Ave, Hyannis, MA 02601, *******503. I contacted B&H to report the issue, and their response was that the product had been delivered and that nothing could be done. They said their website confirms delivery data before completing the purchase, which didn't happen in my case, as no such confirmation appeared for me. I double-checked the Kissimmee, FL address before completing the order. It's important to mention that earlier this year, I made another purchase through B&H to the same address, and everything went smoothly. However, this situation is much more serious. Outraged by this delivery error, I started researching online and found other serious reports of customers facing similar issues, and it seems that these occurrences are being completely ignored. In my opinion, there are signs of a scheme where criminals are compromising B&H's website, possibly using USB devices in places with internet access that prevent IP identification. These intruders interfere with the purchase process, redirect products to alternate addresses, and no one notices, not even B&H. I wrote to the company asking them not to ignore my report, as they have a great reputation, and this is jeopardizing their legacy. Please consider the following: How could I have specifically directed the shipment to 166 Bristol Ave, Hyannis, MA 02601, *******503? I wouldn't have known how to detail that address. I have no personal or professional connections to anyone in that region. If I had received any notification about a different address, I would have noticed the error and corrected it immediately before completing the purchase. Why was this address concealed, and why wasn't I notified? I only discovered this Massachusetts address on FedEx's website, as it was never shown to me. This situation clearly indicates a serious problem. Please understand that I am facing both a financial loss and a serious impact on my work. I am a digital content creator who depends on this equipment and trusted your store. As an American company, I believe B&H should value consumer rights. I've asked them not to ignore this issue. There are clear signs of fraud that will continue unless addressed. Finally, considering the clear security failure in B&H's online transaction system, I understand that B&H holds co-responsibility for completing this compromised transaction. I should not be penalized for the vulnerability of B&H's system. I have requested a solution beyond the responses of "we can't do anything" or "you wrote the wrong address." I need this product to continue my work. I've provided my phone number here in Brazil in the hope of a real solution to this issue. Thank you for your attention, and I eagerly await a satisfactory response from B&H.

The ordering process is simple and easy. The product was available. I've bought this brand of bag before. It's lasted me for over six years with no problems.

Always have items needed in stock. Huge advantage is not having to pay sales tax since I am out of state. Already very competitive deals to start with.

Fast shipping and excellent service.web site is easy to navigate and prices are competitive. I would highly recommend B&H as they do not charge sales tax like Amazon does.

They have all the bases covered... price, ease of ordering, and delivery time. Ordered an unlocked Moto G6 and 3 months free unlimited 8 gig data service. What a deal!

Best selection! Best prices! Service as good, if not better, than my local "bricks and mortar" camera store. They are always the first place I look for products.

Unmatched selection, knowledgeable staff, competitive prices, free parking. What else do you need. And don't be intimidated if you're not a professional. They'll treat you like one anyway.

Just ordered a beautiful drone from B&H. Very easy process with absolutely no problems at all. Great price. Free shipping. If I had any questions, I could just call them. Why buy anywhere else?

This was so easy to order. Love your website and the ease of finding items needed, then ordering. Did not know there was a replacement battery for my camera, but now I know.

I decided to stop being lazy and just ordering everything from Amazon "by default". I've found that B&H is generally the best source for electronics in terms of both price and service.

I have always received excellent customer service from B&H. By phone, by chat. My orders arrive promptly. Their website is great. And to my knowledge they are not in bed with the NRA like Amazon.

B&H not only has the best selections at great prices. Ordering is quick and accurate. If we need to pick up in store they're just a few stops away. Free parking if needed. Who could ask for more?
