“I placed an order with B & H for a printer and two extra ink cartridges. Weeks went by and when I emailed asking when the printer would ship they gave me lots of excuses. In the meanwhile they shipped and charged me $50 which was pointless at that time. Meanwhile 30 day return period expired. I was not aware of that policy and if I did was sure they would grasp the situation. After more weeks went by I was desperate as my old printer died completely. Thanks HP Fed up I emailed this outfit to 1. Cancel the order entirely 2. Issue an RMA so I could return a useless cartridge. A person replied that he would take care of it. A week went by and NO RMA. You can’t call these people because they apparently ensure you will hang up after waiting for an hour. I had to use email. Repeatedly I sent more emails asking where is the RMA? Finally I called a nitwit and explained that I was being stuck, due to their own failure, to actually deliver the printer. This “customer service person” then informed me that I could not return the cartridge because it exceeded 30 days! What!!! How silly can this outfit be? By the way the cartridge is brand new and is unopened. So, I find B&H to be nothing less than cheats. Don’t order anything from this pathetic outfit. Far better off using Costco, Amazon, or Walmart.”

“Richard J. helped me with an order for a camera and ancillary accessories. Richard was most gracious and very patient with me during the process. He treated me with dignity and respect throughout the entire process. Have been a B&H customer for over two decades. B&H is the only place that I shop for cameras and camera equipment. Richard is truly an asset! Thank you, Richard, I sincerely appreciate your time! Bob Jake”

“Very disappointed. I searched for coupons for a Celestron Nexstar 5se and a $200 off appeared from B&H's website. But when I went to order no discount transpired. I contacted the sales department about it. Then he got back to me he said there was no discount offered. I went back to the url and it had been removed! I only have a screenshot of the discount beforecI contacted them but B&H still refused to honor it!”

“DO NOT ORDER FROM B&H! Long term, loyal customer of B&H, such as myself, has realized that the customer service of this company has been on a downward slope for many years. I have personally spent over $30k over the last several years, and I will not spend another dollar ordering from this company going forward. Their online ordering system is a disaster. Rarely do they get my order right, and never do I get fast service from them and their shipping rarely gets sent to the correct address due to glitches on their website. The final straw for me was the 3 month wait for my Canon R5. Many small retailers from around the world are experiencing wait times, but B&H, who has a large portion of the retail market covered for Canon products, claims they do not have a clue when they will receive stock. The customer service representatives take 5-7 working days to respond and the response they provide is a scripted response with absolutely zero customer service skills on their wording. The lack of service skills at B&H is embarrassing considering the name they once had. This is contributing to their poor reviews online and loss of clients including myself. Do yourself a favor and verify prices and availability with other online providers before pulling the trigger on any orders for this company. I guarantee you will find there are many businesses out there which are far more grateful for your hard earned money during a global pandemic.”

“I've had my worst online experience ever with them, but after reading some of the reviews on other sites, I figured it out. So, if you are not american, or you don't have a pure american name, you will have to submit a verification, being international shopper, seems fine, some sites used to do it in 2010. I've submitted the verification request 4-5 times, and contacted their customer service also 3-4 times, and everytime you mail them, they send you a ref number, I useless Ref number that you can't use for follow up. 6 days passed, I decided to DM them on twitter, and I managed to get in touch with one of the directors ( communication) he seemed helpful ( at least someone replying) so I mailed them my last verification with ID, work email and I asked them if they needed more (as usual no reply just another ref number) was last Thursday and they went off till Monday. by now more than 15 days had passed, since i got a load of ref numbers I decided to mail the latest one to their communication director hoping he will get back to me with an update, instead he replied to me in a discriminating tone, instead of explaining to me what went on with his verification team, he went on to tell the number I mailed is not the order number. It seemed he saw that I got an Arab name, so probably I still ride a camel and live in a tent, and might stole the credit card I paid with from a tourist. So I decided, to cancel the order and since there's a reasoning option I chose to type it myself and I put my reasons, was hoping someone would get back to me to get clarification like proper businesses, they cancelled it instantly like they were praying I do it. what I'm unhappy about that the days I wasted following up with their bot, getting my mail filled with Ref numbers that I should say it again, you can't use to follow up, just randomly generated number. you should add never for how quick the company replies to quires by mail.”

“i do not recommend to buy from B&H. I've bought a telescope from B&H and it arrived with lot of dust between the lenses internally where you could not reach. B&H have replaced it with new one with the same issue, they did not bother to check the replacement before shipping. in addition i was forced to pay twice custom taxes. I've reach to B&H support and shipping to provide me the export data so i could get a refund (it was lot of money ~500$), B&H have stalled this for 2 month after i was checking each week of the status, every time i got the same response 'we are sorry we will move it to shipping department'. after 2 months they said that they could not help with this issue. they didn't even tried to contact DHL and get this, it should be resolved in 10 minutes call with DHL. i would have done this but DHL can't provide info to me as B&H payed for shipping back the telescope. so, my advise to you is don't buy from B&H, cause when you'll encounter an issue there will be no one to assist you, if you are like me who value support be aware.”
