Once I decided on the DSLR I wanted, choosing a merchant was not any easier comparing prices, shipping, taxes, instock, merchant cash back, authorized dealer, store rating etc. Sad to say that Uniquephoto.com was not in my merchant list I was comparing as it did not showed up on any site I was comparing prices. The merchant name came to my mind only as a result of visiting the studio of a family friend for any advices and going through some of his catalogs. I didn't get much from him as he still does film only and has not moved down to digital yet.
I have called to see if if they had the camera in stock. I was asked to leave a message as I choose online orders from their phone menu. At the same time I was able to talk to a CSR when I choose a different menu.
Anyhow, I placed my order on the order on 8th and received my item on the 10th w/ ground shipping. Wished they included one of their latest catalog along... I also felt like their website interface is build poorly along with poor presentation of products and accessories. Might be because they used their catalog as a base to build the site.
Though functionality and user friendliness is poor on the site... I will be ordering again... only after few quick comparison searches.
