![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I was a bit skeptical about shopping with this merchant as I had never heard of them before. However, I placed an order for a Canon 24-70 2.8 Lens as they had the best price online. When I called to inquire about the lens, the salesperson was very pleasant and answered all my questions. My order was shipped right away and delivered within 2 days. The order was exactly what it was advertized on their website. I would not hesitate to shop with them again in the future.

![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I was also skeptical to order from theimagingworld as i had never heard of them. As an experienced buyer who normally sticks to main shops such as B&H, i was apprehensive at first, but they showed 1D MKIII\u0027s in stock when no one else had them. I called them, and got very helpful and attentive service. They said the cameras would come in the next day and they could ship them as soon as they unpacked them. I went ahead and ordered, and sure enough they sent it out overnight right on time and i got it the next day. Suprisingly great service, I would certainly buy from them again!","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/The_Imaging_World\/comment\/318395#comment318395","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/The_Imaging_World.jpg","store_name":"The Imaging World","username":"billgphotography","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":" They were the best price I could find from a reputable store. It was a limited reputation of four entries at Resellerratings but, I was also unable to find any bad news in a general search and a search of some forums. It seems to have been a good call.<br> There was no hassle about accepting a USPS money order with which I overpaid. I received an email to call and tell them how I wanted to proceed with handling the overpayment. My purchase, a Nikon 55-200vr lense, arrived in about the time I would have expected it should. The product came with the US warranty, was complete and basically, as advertised. I am very satisfied.

As promised, they shipped the camera and it was delivered in a timely manner. I\u0027m looking forward to future transactions from them as they were very professional and sell a high quality product.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/The_Imaging_World\/comment\/337925#comment337925","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/The_Imaging_World.jpg","store_name":"The Imaging World","username":"Seadragonrex","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I ordered a Canon 40D kit with the 17-85 IS Lens. Joel was VERY helpful in answering my questions. I got an unbelievable price which made me wonder if this was all \u0027too good to be true\u0027. Joel assured me all products were new USA Canon product and they just price things better than the competition! The camera arrived on time and I am very pleased as everything was exactly as represented. Joel was not pushy with suggesting add-ons though I did by a UV filter for $25 and an extra battery for $20. Turns out those were all genuine Canon accessories too! Bonus! Imaging World will be my first stop when I am buying some L glass I have my eye on. I know I found a shop I can trust and I will be back for more!","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/The_Imaging_World\/comment\/338886#comment338886","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/The_Imaging_World.jpg","store_name":"The Imaging World","username":"drewo","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I am very satisfied with my purchase from theimaginworld. It is unfortunate that the previous buyer had a such a bad experience but that wasn\u0027t the case for me. I feel like I need to defend this seller as he is one of the very few sellers from Brooklyn that is actually legit (unlike 1wayphoto and cameraexpress). I bought a Canon 40D 17-85mm IS USM kit off his eBay auction for a great price. I also bought a 4 GB CF card and extra battery. The seller was nice enough to combine the 2 accessories with the Canon 40D and didn\u0027t charge me any extra shipping. My purchase was shipped out the very next day via USPS Priority International Mail to Canada. My package arrived in just 6 business days from date of purchase. I didn\u0027t think Priority Int\u0027l Mail was that fast!<br><br>Everything in the my order was new as described (at least everything looked new). The only problem was that I was sent a 4 GB SD card rather than a CF card that I ordered. I called the store up and Joel gladly agreed to return or refund the cost of the card and he even agreed to pay for the return shipping since it was his mistake. In the end I sold the SD card instead and bought a CF card locally as I couldn\u0027t wait.<br><br>Also, I should mention that Joel was polite and professional on the phone. I must\u0027ve called him 4 times with questions about the purchase because that was my largest eBay order ever.<br><br>Other than that mix up I am very satisfied with my purchase.<br><br>I will definitely consider buying from him again.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/The_Imaging_World\/comment\/343954#comment343954","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/The_Imaging_World.jpg","store_name":"The Imaging World","username":"tim_s1","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I recently purchased two difficult to find, newly released Nikon professional lenses (14-24mm & 24-70mm) from salesperson Joel Weiss, who was gracious, effective, intelligent, honest, and direct in procuring for me my purchase which then arrived at my studio 24 hours later in perfect condition. I will gladly do business with Joel and TheImagingWorld again in the future, and can honestly recommend them to any professional or consumer photographer who wants a good experience with honorable and knowlegable people.

"I've bought most of my Nikon gear from The Imaging World, as they're an authorized Nikon dealer. You only get the manufacturer's warranties through an authorized dealer, especially the free 4-yr extension on the lenses if you register them. They also offer factory extended warranties on the camera bodies, not aftermarket ones. There have been a couple of situations where the customer service was beyond the call, and I greatly appreciated it. The service has been first-rate every time. Highly recommended!"
