"Ordered a replacement remote for my Denon CD player late Tuesday night, got it on Friday. Appears to be OEM and works fine, even came with batteries. "
"I called Panasonic to ask if they had a remote in stock for a television I bought in 2001 (10 years ago). After checking, they kindly referred me to 1-800-REMOTES. All I provided them was the model number and within a minute the remote was ordered. In two days, it was in my mailbox. The remote even arrived with the batteries installed. This company is great!"
"Just had a good experience with 1-800-REMOTES. My mother was gifted a weird brand of TV (Proton) that is impossible to find remotes for (and it didn't come with one naturally). Remotes.com was literally the only place on the internet that I could find this remote. They sent her one within a week, but it didn't work out of the box. She called them up, though, and in another few days they were able to send her one that did work! Awesome!
UPDATE: They repaired the broken remote and sent it back, so now my mom has two remotes for the price of one! Bonus!"

"Ordered a replacement remote, received an email confirming order and stating remote would arrive in approximately one week. Ten days later, I emailed the company asking about the status and received an automated response that they would contact me shortly. They did not. I called the toll free number and was told I was emailed the day after the order and told the remote was on backorder. I DID NOT receive any such email. Later, I received an email stating I was emailed on September 15, which, even if true, was 6 days and not 1 day after the order. This did not coincide with what the CSR told me when we spoke on the phone. I would NOT do business with this company again due to extremely poor communication and even worse customer service."

"I ordered a Mitsubishi remote from this vendor. The website showed a photo of the remote I was replacing. It also had the exact same model number of the remote reflected on the Mitsubishi website. So, I placed an order. The item that arrived was a cheap replacement that looks NOTHING like the original remote (or the photo) - it also does not have anywhere close to the same functions. This was a classic "bait and switch". Of course, no return information was enclosed with the product. When I called, I was told to return the product to the return address on the shipping label of the envelope in which the product was sent and my money less the $7.95 shipping and handling charge would be refunded. In essence, I was swindled out of $7.95 (plus the return shipping cost). In my opinion, this is a dishonest internet company."
"I am very pleased with my experience from this vendor. I had my identical replacement remote in only a few days. My TV was built in 1993 and they had the exact remote (another site had the same remote but under a different brand name). The manufacturer discontinued the item but I was able to get a used one in very good condition (and clean). I literally opened the box and began using the remote. Batteries were already installed. I only received one email, confirming my order. I would have liked to get some kind of shipping confirmation or a tracking number, but since my order was delivered quickly (by ground standards) I would not consider this a big deal. The price was reasonable considering that my TV is older (hard to find remotes for it) and universal remotes costing more didn't offer 100% compatibility. If I had to order another remote I would check with this company first."
"The remote was a GE, but they sold out to another company, then this company no longer supported the remote, so I had little hope of getting another (after the old one stopped working partially). But 1-800-remotes had the exact model (with batteries), and shipping was quick. I am very satisified with the deal! "
"I ordered a replacement RCA remote. The original just stopped working one day. I was a little surprised by how much a remote cost.
The on line ordering went smoothly. I got an e-mail back saying my order had been placed afterwards. The package arrived 5 days later. The new remote was already equipped with batteries. I unwrapped it and used it on my TV right away.
"I ordered an OEM remote on Oct. 6th from the 1-800-Remotes website, to replace a unit that my dog ate. Their website is http://www.remotes.com or http://www.newremotes.com. I received the exact remote that I ordered, well packed and pre-loaded with batteries.
Overall I am satisfied.
I have have a few gripes however... Their website gives no indication as to whether the unit is is stock or not. Immediately after my order I received a generic automatic response confirming my order. A week went by and I received no remote or shipping notification so I sent them an email asking for the status. I received a response the next day stating that the unit was backordered and would ship from the factory on or about Nov 1st. I feel that 1-800-remotes should have contacted me to inform me of the back order. In the end I received the Remote on October 24th, more than a week sooner than expected. No notification was sent that the unit was shipping. I'm not holding the backorder against them, since this was a very new product, only that the website does not indicate stock and that no useful information is emailed by the seller. These days I expect more Information about order status and shipping information from a web merchant."
