Like most, I believe 1 star is too much. I can't warn you enough to STAY AWAY!!! THEY LIE, OVERCHARGE, and SCREAM AT CUSTOMERS OVER THE PHONE. And this is from the supervisor! I asked him if it was smart for a merchant to yell at their customers and he continued to yell at me. They overcharged more than $75 and lied about the warranty. I hope you read this in time. THESE GUYS ARE THE MOST RUDEST, LYING CROOKS I'VE EVER KNOWN! |

I ordered a Minolta Xt digital camera. I also ordered overnight shipping. After a week of trying to get ahold of the number they said to call to "verify the order", I cancelled the order. I ordered the same camera from a reliable seller about 3 days later. I recieved both cameras on the same day. I have been calling and e-mailing them for another week now, to get the authorization code so I can return the camera, to no avail. These people are the worst kind of crooks!!!!!! |

I wish I would have checked PriceGrabber before trying to order from this racket. I ordered a Sony Digital Camcorder but they shipped a cheap, beat-up digital camera. Then they said they would not give me a refund because "how do they know it was not me that put the wrong item in the box." After over a month of phone calls I finally got them to credit my Visa but they creditied $40 less than the original charge. I ended up disputing it with Visa. PLEASE DO NO ORDER FROM THESE SCAMMERS!!! |

Zero stars I knew the drill-was even prepared to pay a bit more: I clearly requested "Nikon USA warranty". Had a discussion on this-I said "no in-store warranty, no USA warranty-I want a Nikon USA warranty" Yes,Yes,Yes Total quote was $3602 plus $236 to ship-still a bargain for USA product-ordered w/AMEX Called to confirm it had shipped & that I'd get the "three part Nikon USA warranty paperwork"- he then admits "no nikon warranty". I cancelled Called elsewhere only $60 more!! |

I will never again buy from these people. The salesperson was beyond rude--incredibly aggressive, even nasty. In retrospect, I wish I had ended the communication right then. Instead, unfortunately, I ordered two lenses and allowed myself to be bullied into ordering some filters (cheap, way overpriced,unusable). The order arrived, haphazardly packed, with a sales slip that had one price: it wasn't itemized and was $200.+ more than I had anticipated. Plain and simple: these people are crooks. |

These guys are crooks. Purchased a Nikon digital camera. I received an email from them asking me to call back in order to confirm order. When I called back they tried selling accessories at ridiculous prices. I refused all the accessories. So then they mentioned if I wanted the U.S. version it was going to be an additional $200. It was a total rip off. To make the story short, they never shipped the camera. People like them should not be allowed to run a business. |

Placed order on net, got the confirmation number, declined any overpriced accessories, and got it exactly one week later. the package it came in was almost completely ripped apart and the actual camera box was not sealed or shrinkwrapped. but all the accessories where intact. I won't buy from these guys again for the poor packaging alone. Look around before buying from here and if you have to, shell out the extra 20 bucks for a more reputable Photo Site. dont buy their overpriced accessories |

These people are unbelievable!! I am shocked that they stay in business...if you can call it a business. I, like many others here, received the "call to verify your order" email. What a scam! They try to sell you everything and the kitchen sink. All overpriced of course. When I refused to bite (after a good 5 minutes of sales speak), the salesperson pulled the "gray market" BS. I completely lost it at that point. Avoid these people at all costs if you value your hard earned money! |

Ordered a Fuji Finepix S602. Told us it was backordered 14-21 days. Called after 14 days, told it was still 14-21 days till shipping. Called later, asked to order same camera, was told they had in stock, then confronted them about the 14-21 says, they began lying to me. Later found out camera was Japanese, even camera has no English writing on it. Called and cancelled, just not worth the effort. Avoid at all costs! Con artists selling cameras. |

Ordered a Minolta Dimage 7i. They sent the e-mail to call for verification. After 2 days they finally returned my call. Tried to sell me a warranty and other accessories. I declined (their ad didn't disclose the lack of a warranty). After waiting 30 days, I cancelled. BAD EXPERIENCE |

VERY misleading ads. They part out a package and then offer only the main item at a discounted price. A complete package is more than retail. Fortunately I found out before commiting $$. No hassles from them when I cancelled the order. |

DO NOT BE LURED BY THEIR LOW PRICES. THEY ARE A SCAM. Discovered, after placing the order, that they take apart the manufacturer's package and reship the item with very cheap parts! Ordered a Canon S45 - they ship it with a battery which only lasts 20 minutes and takes only 5 pictures, as opposed to 190! Have just cancelled order - hopefully it will go through! Prices also do not reflect the PACKAGE price, only the item by itself - package price is about $50 higher! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!! |

Please read!I purchased MINOLTA DIMAGE 7i, received email requesting confirmation. Called the # as indicated on my email to confirm...person on the other line was not only RUDE but very adamant about selling accessories and warranty. To make a long story short..I had to be smarter than him. Called to check the status of my order (8 days later) Since the order was on backorder..I canceled it. Was not charged...thank GOD!! PLEASE DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY, GOOD LUCK TO YOU! |

Don't go here. They will try to pressure you into buying expensive packages. They told me that if I didn't like the package when it arrived I could return it, but didn't say that there was a restocking fee and shipping (based on a percentage of the sale, not weight). On an $800 order they were going to keep $130. |

I would give Broadway Photo a zero if possible. I orderered the Fujifilm Finepix s602 camera from them. They sent an email saying I needed to call and confirm my order. So I called and after telling them I did not want to buy any of their over-priced accessories they simply refused to deal with me. It took me over an hour on the phone, getting put on hold, getting hung-up on, and transfered to voicemail before I was able to tell them to cancel my order!!! Do not order from Broadway Photo!!!! |

Would never use Broadway. Misled me to think I was going to get entire camcorder package and learned, through another one of their sales staff, that the price quoted was only for the camera body. Order was cancelled at my request. Understand errant salesperson is no longer with company! |

I can't stand the high pressure sales techniques these guys use. They bait you with an e-mail to call them re your order and then proceed to push you to include additional items in your order. In addition, they charged me $100.00 more than what I agreed to on the phone. Of course, no one has responded to my e-mails to them. Stay clear of these guys. |

I wanted to order a Canon XL1s camera, and because of their price, I called them and asked if all the standard accessories were included for the price listed. I went through them one by one, and they said yes. When I ordered, a confirmation e-mail said to call. I did, and they said nothing came with it and I would have to spend about $1500 more for a lens and cables, etc. I canceled my order. |

Buyer be super careful, these are not ethical people you're dealing with!!! I ordered a Sony camcorder(DCR-PC9). I called to get a tracking #, was asked whether I knew I'd be getting a grey market model w/out a warranty and a body only, no power cord, no software, nothing. Of course I didn't know any of this, how would I? After being told not to tell them what they ought to disclose on their website I cancelled the order. |

Got a price quote for a government bid for a digital camcorder. When I won the bid, and called to order, they said that the camera was $400 more. The one I was quoted was the European model! So I actually lost money on the bid because of them, no wonder I was the lowest. Then they tried to upsell me! |

I ordered a Canon G2 PhotoShot Digital Camera. Their site said "available" & "usually ships next business day". I received an email the next day stating to call them. When I did, they stated that they were out of stock & someone had forgot to update their website. They claimed that they only had the camera in a "combo" pack for $130.00 more. Sounds like a scam to me! After several phone calls and alot of fuss I was able to negotiate a lower price. Consumers BEWARE!!! |

Ordered a Sony DSC-F707 digital camera. Got the usual "phone us" email everyone else got. Turned out to be a gray-market model with no accessories or warranty. Went ahead with order anyway, and was told it was shipping tomorrow. One week later, I phoned and was told it was backordered, so I cancelled. |
