I was nervous after reading previous reviews, but I received my lens brand new and in working order. They did throw in a UV filter which I did not order and charged me 19.98 additional for it, but not worth complaining about. I received my lens in two days and still paid less than I would have at any local retailer plus I received a UV filter. I would shop with them again in future.

Four days later my credit card was charged the full amount from Hot Buys- After a month of aggravation of calling only to be told it had shipped I cancelled the order via phone, fax and email. I received an email stating my order has been cancelled and a refund to my card would appear in 72 hours. It has been 3 weeks- I have now reported this fraud to Visa. I would never do business with either of these companies unless you have a lot of spare time to follow up and complain.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Taaffe_Photo\/comment\/423722#comment423722","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Taaffe_Photo.jpg","store_name":"Taaffe Photo \/ HotBuysElectronics \/ L and T Electronics","username":"fayanne","rating":"1"}, "single");)

They immediately debited the money from my account (on the 11th) I\u0027ve been trying to contact them to get a tracking number. I\u0027ve called every day, no response. E-mailed every day, no response (at all) I finally spoke to someone yesterday and they said I\u0027d be getting a shipping number yesterday. No such luck. Called today, and the guy said I\u0027d be getting a shipping number today. Today\u0027s not over, but no luck so far. He also told me that the entire company was closed from the 13th to the 23rd of october \u0022for the holidays\u0022 Not sure what holiday he\u0027s talking about, but probably should have mentioned somewhere that if you order while they\u0027re on holiday they\u0027ll take your money, and then not even ship your item for 2 weeks. I needed a camera for some events (that have since passed) and would have liked to have know that despite 24.50 in shipping costs it was going to take 3 weeks to get the camera. If you like your sanity, or your money DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE!!!!!","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Taaffe_Photo\/comment\/415064#comment415064","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Taaffe_Photo.jpg","store_name":"Taaffe Photo \/ HotBuysElectronics \/ L and T Electronics","username":"murph21","rating":"1"}, "single");)

I have placed an order for a Canon 50mm f\/1.4 USM lens based on the claim on their website that they have it in stock. 2 weeks later, not having gotten it I called them and was told it should arrive in 1-2 weeks. 4 weeks later when I called them, I was told they don\u0027t have it in stock. Not having received the credit 10 weeks after the purchase (!), I called them again. They said they never spoke with me and said that they have in stock.<br>Outrageous!","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Taaffe_Photo\/comment\/408799#comment408799","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Taaffe_Photo.jpg","store_name":"Taaffe Photo \/ HotBuysElectronics \/ L and T Electronics","username":"tosha73","rating":"1"}, "single");)

I know that it has been discontinued, but I was replacing someone\u0027s that I dropped. I got the bait and switch too! It was first $129 which was the cheapest I could find, but got the call and it was $11 more for the US with warranty. I should have said then credit me! I got the camera, it does not have the 16M card with it like advertised, and when I called he said they don\u0027t make the 16M cards anymore, so they don\u0027t come with the camera. It\u0027s the PRINCIPLE I know a 16M card isn\u0027t worth much. I WILL NEVER do business with someone who has this lack of integrity. I could have gotten it through Sears cheaper had I known the additional \u0022warranty\u0022 cost...which they added on as a shipping charge!","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Taaffe_Photo\/comment\/400868#comment400868","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Taaffe_Photo.jpg","store_name":"Taaffe Photo \/ HotBuysElectronics \/ L and T Electronics","username":" BiRd","rating":"2"}, "single");)

I Received immediate order confirmation by email stating the item would be shipped in 5 days. Not being happy with the 5 day delay for shipping, I emailed customer service asking for a ship date. They replied promptly (within 30 minutes) saying the item would ship on 7\/16 and they would supply the tracking data as soon as they received it from the shipper. The item arrived at my door via UPS on 7\/21. I am very satisfied with Taaffe\u0027s service and especially their customer service representative\u0027s prompt and polite comunications and would highly recommend Taaffe for any internet purchases.

"I purchased a Canon 40D camera kit on eBay for Christmas last year from a site called "Only Sales" for what seemed to be a good price. I received a confirmatory e-mail from them stating that I would get the camera. The web site boasted a 98% approval rating. The site was removed from eBay the following day. I did receive the camera kit (after Christmas), however the lens was broken. I returned the kit for refund and was strung along for several months as they "looked into it". Eventually they admitted I would not get a refund but a replacement camera kit. I came to find out that this site was Taffee Photo. It has been 5 months since then and I continue to get strung along. I've complained to the BBB in New York without result. If anyone has a way to coerce them to make good on their commitment, I'd love to hear it. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH ANY OF THESE COMPANIES!!"
