Good transaction. Batteries delivered promptly and in good condition.

After much research and price shopping for NiMH batteries and chargers I was able to find the products I was looking for at very reasonable prices at Thomas-Distributing. They have a wide variety of rechargeable battery supplies and accessories. I looked hard around the internet and could not find better pricing. Having never done business with them I couldn't be sure what to expect, but they responded with a tracking number shortly after I placed my order and all arrived in great shape as advertised. I couldn't be happier with my purchasing experience or the iPowerUS charger and 9V batteries. The website is easy to navigate and ordering is a breeze.

I placed an order on 6/19. From previous online shopping experiences, I expected the package to ship out the next day. To my suprise, I recived a notice-of-shipment email a few hours later. No way, I thought. It must mean that the package is ready to ship out the next day. When the 20th rolled around, I decided to check the FedEx order tracking. "On vehicle for delivery." Wow! Not bad for $6 shipping (note: I live within close proximity of their warehouse, hence the fast delivery). Their site was fairly easy to navigate, and ordering was very simple as well. I will defintely be buying from them again.

Although I probably could have drove to their actual store, I took the lazy way out and ordered it from their website and had it shipped via UPS. It turns out they shipped it the day I ordered it and it appeared on my doorstep the very next day. The batteries (Maha Powercell 2200mAH) are awesome and so is the charger (Maha C204F). Overall I am very pleased with them, and will refer anyone who needs batteries to them.

I ordered a set of Powerex batteries from Thomas Distributing on Wednesday and received the batteries the following Tuesday. I also received an e-mail with tracking info when it shipped. I might even have had them Monday if it wasn't Memorial Day!! I haven't gotten to try out the batteries yet, as the camera I ordered from another vendor (on the same day) hasn't even been shipped yet. :( I would definitely recommend this company!!

Ordered batt's/charger Tuesday night. Shipped Wednesday. Received Monday in perfect condition, well packed and protected. Impressive!  
Definitely would buy from again!

I ordered on sunday and got my package on Friday. Not too bad being where they are and that I ordered 3-5 day shipping. I do have a complaint though:  
 
I filled out a specific form to choose a different billing and shipping address. I wanted to charge the order to my visa which uses my home address for a billing address. However, I wanted the order shipped to where I work because there's usually no one at home during the day while I'm at work.  
 
The email they sent me after placing the order clearly showed they would be sending to my work address and billing to my home address.  
 
HOWEVER, when I got the email confirmation from UPS, it showed my home address city in the "shipping to" field instead of the city where I work.  
 
Sure enough, the order was shipping to the wrong address. It was shipping to my home instead of work. Lucky for me someone was there to sign for it (very unusual but it worked out ok).  
 
I'm not that mad because it got there, but I think it's a pretty simple task to send to a different address than the billing addres, especially when you have a specific form to fill out when specifying this. Makes me kind of wonder about the competency of the company and it's workforce...  
 
Other than this complaint the whole thing was rather painless and went well.

I decided to buy from Thomas Distributing simply because of their very large selection of NiMH products with reasonable prices. I ordered several sets of batteries, extra battery holders, and 2 battery chargers. One very nice touch was being able to pay with Paypal so I could send money from my checking account without having to write a check to pay off my credit card.  
 
I received a confirmation email from Tomas Distributing as well as a shipping notice from FedEx. The package arrived on time and the contents were neatly packed in its own sealed plastic bag surrounded by bubble-wrap.  
 
I think I was most impressed by the invoice. Each item was checked off meaning that someone actually made sure that my order was correct. It's hard to mess up an order when you double check everything!  
 
My experience overall with Thomas Distributing was nothing short of perfect. I have already told several people about them and will definitely be ordering from them again. Rest assured, they are top notch!

I am very happy with the MAHA C401FS charger, the  
MAHA NiMH 2000 maH AA batteries and the Kodak NiMH  
AAA batteries which I ordered. The order was shipped  
promptly and arrived in good shape.  
 
I also ordered the 6 pcs precision screwdriver set  
and helping hand with 2 inch magnifier. The last two  
items are very poor quality and not worth the  
money. I would have sent them back, but the return  
postage would have been too much, so I kept them.  
I also got a free flashlight with two AA batteries  
which were also poor quality. The two AA batteries  
which came with the flashlight were dead on arrival  
and when I put two fresh alkaline batteries in the  
flashlight, they were dead in one day even though  
the flashlight was off.

After reading my comments on this site, Thomas Distributing  
contacted me by phone and email about my complaint.  
I called them back and was very satified with the outcome.  
This is a great company which really cares about their  
customers. I definitely would not hestitate to buy  
from them again.

They got the order right at the right price. Good place to deal with.

Ordered a charger and batteries on a Sunday and received everything on Thursday. This is with a one day delay, due to a problem with my credit card. They had the best price I could find. Everything was well packaged and they even included a 5% discount coupon for my next order. I would definitely order from them again.

Very fast processing and shipping. Great deal on rechargeable Ni-MH 2000mAh AA batteries and recharger (to be used for an alkaline murdering digital camera). I ordered it on Thursday, and it came the following Saturday via USPS Priority (you should use USPS whenever you can because it's faster).  
 
The website could use a new design since it looks old school. Fast site nevertheless. Easy online and secure ordering. I highly recommend Thomas Distributing. Visit this site if you need any batteries.

The day after I ordered a battery charger and batteries online (for a very good price), a sales person called. I had forgotten to provide my zip code and state. I gave it to her. There was no pressure to buy any additional products. The items were shipped immediately afterward and arrived here as promised in 2-3 business day. all the items purchased were shipped. This is the right way to run a business. Very satisfied customer.

This was my second purchase and I couldn't ask for more. Don't hesitate, buy!

I have placed two orders from them, and have received everything from them without incident. Good products and great service - not sure what more to ask for!
