"I bought a camera online, at best, the whole transaction was "ODD"....I have been buying online products (and selling them) since September 2000. I have never before had to phone the store I purchased from to confirm an order until I bought from this website. I was passed on the phone from one young guy to another who told me 'we are not accepting American Express Card transactions for this week only' ...... their speech was unprofessional and uncomfortable and I cancelled the transaction when they asked for another credit card number. Not going to happen. Sorry. They were the cheapest on the internet for the item I wanted. I will buy it elsewhere. They missed out on a $231 transaction"

"BEWARE SHOPPERS....THIS COMPANY CONTINUES TO RIP OFF TOURISTS TO THE ORLANDO/KISSIMMEE AREA. THEY USE VARIOUS TACTICS...SUCH AS OVERPRICING GEAR AND DECEPTIVE CLAIMS. THEY ESPECIALLY TARGET TOURISTS. SAVE YOU MONEY AND DO NOT ALLOW THESE CLOWS TO AGGRAVATE YOU LIKE THEY DID TO ME AND HUNDREDS OF OTHERS. WHY THEY HAVE NOT BEEN SHUT DOWN I DON'T KNOW...I SUSPECT THAT IT IS BECAUSE TOURISTS DON'T STAY AROUND LONG...AND DEALING WITH THEM FORM ABROAD IS LESS LIKELY."

"This site is a a big scam. We bought a Cannon T2i camera with a 18-200 lens from this site 2 months ago. We only received the camera and so far we haven't seen the shippment of the lens yet. Everytime we called to inqury about the lens, they gave us the same excuse that the lens is on back order. We had a lot of hassle dealing with this site. The owner even used the f-word one time on the phone and threatened to ruin our credit if we disputed the payment. "

"NEVER buy from them! They are LIARs!!
You first placed an order and you get an email telling you to confirm the order, then they will tell you the one your ordered is out of stock, you have to pay much more to buy another one. They even lie to you telling you that you cannot cancel the order.

updated:
I cancel the order"

"I previously reported me extreme disatisfaction with Express Cameras, the good news is that their web site is now CLOSED! Good riddance Express Cameras! Beware of any online camera ads that appear "too good to be true". Stick with reputable dealers - there are plenty to pick from!"

"I experienced the same sense of hopelessness as other reviewers. I ordered a Nikon D200 package for my honeymoon. I had saved up for months for this moment. I received the email asking for me to call and advise the 3 digit code on the back of my credit card. I fell for that scam first. I should have gone with my gut instinct to not give out this code. Instead, my greed and longing for this camera took over my better judgement. I surrendered to the bait and switch as I had not done all my homework regarding what was included in the original camera box. The salesman Kevin was so rude, and insulted me when I tried to cancel the order. I received the camera kit, much to my surprise, a few days later. It was the wrong camera, a D80 with a Sigma lens, i/o the promised Nikon lens. I called and tried to return the camera- to only be placed on hold and insulted by Chris- who called me a foolish woman. Well, that pissed this foolish woman off. So much so, that I immediately disputed the charge with my credit card. Express Cameras had 45 days to answer my credit cards terms. No answer. SO, I am now a proud owner of a free Nikon camera kit. I tossed the 'freebies' in the garbage as that is exactly what they were- garbage. Thanks for the free camera Express Cameras!!! The only fools here are you and your poor wives who will be alone for years when you are all behind bars for years of fraud under so many alias!!!!!"

"i too have had a recent bad dealing with express camera....... i wish i had found this site first. i googled express camera today to see if there were other reports of fraud and deceit and lo and behold. they charged me $245.00 for ground shipping a camcorder and promised me a free camcorder upgrade after which i repeatedly asked him to itemized the invoice and peter (manager) kept telling me he was including all these accessories but later saying they are not available for this camcorder. i knew there was a problem but he kept telling me the the package was huge. it was a cheap tripod and video light as well as a bag that the camcorder doesn't fit in. i wish that i had hung up at that point.
when i received the box and could'nt believe the scam i had to call the order line as they wouldn't answer my calls to the customer service line and he lied through the whole discussion. do not order from these scam artist. i got the shipping cost back but after 30 min. of arguing i hung up. too bad for them as i just ordered a sony camera for my wife from another dealer who post their shipping prices and only recommend accessories to go with it."

"Hello randallr!

I read your review about Express Cameras, and you said that "I was advised from a U.S. Attorney from the computer crimes division I could record calls". I just got out of court, regarding a case I have with my credit card company, around Express Cameras, & the presiding judge would not even listen to my recorded calls. He considered them inadmissable evidence, and informed me that it was illegal to record without prior consent. I'm very interested in having whoever told you that you could record, contact me, and let me know what law says that you can record.

Thanks,

audiowizard

"Worst on-line experience I have ever had. Company uses the bait and switch method of sales.
I ordered a Canon xti camera package on-line. The next day I received a call from Chris, he needed Authorization code, and pursuaded me to upgrade to better lenses, 5 hr. battery, high speed memory card and by the way I have a better deal if you upgrade to catalog package. I was stupid and fell for the switch. After investigating the so called upgrade it was all bullshit. I called to try to change back to original package and was told that it was to late, it has already shipped, another f***ing lie!!! I got the tracking # and the package shipped 2 days after I tried cancelling.. I talked to 3 different guys Chris, Kevin and Greg who were all the same guy, rude and full of sh*t. I refused delivery and cancelled my credit card.
I also filed a complaint with NJ BBB and when done with this review I will be filing a dispute with the NJ Attorney General. Stay away from this fraudulant company. "
