"Ordered a item on c.c. got confirmation and was cancelled 2 days later. It happens but in reading old reviews i think they are bad news. Stay away. I wonder what my c.c. bill looks like."
"Stay away from this store. Dishonest, misleading coustomer with wrong description and price! Purchase made but order was cancelled because merchant cannot fulfill the order. They will not honour their price and will cancel your order if they feel like it."
"Ordered 2 1GB "32X" SD cards at the posted price of $32.49 each. 3 days later I received this:
"Due to a technical error that caused an incorrect price to appear on our site for Chumbo Part # 229390 (Lexar High Speed - Flash memory card), we have had to cancel your order ..." from David Ortiz, General Manager of Chumbo.com. Turns out that not only was the price "incorrect," so was the item description; after further research, the "32X" SD card advertised was not 32X at all (the part number listed under the "32X" item description was for a standard speed card). Nedless to say, I will not be doing any business with an organization unable to provide accurate pricing or merchandise identification.
"
"These guys are horrible. Ordered a 1GB SD card and had my order cancelled after two days of limbo because of some technical error. Why not just honor the price like everyone else? On top of that my money took 5 days to be refunded, and only after I called them to complain.
"
"Unhonourable store ! Purchase made but order was cancelled because merchant cannot fulfill the order. They do not honour their price and will cancel your order if they think its too cheap. Do not waste your time with Chumbo.com "
"I my order was canceled without any notice. I only found out that it was canceled when I logged on to my account to check its status and found out that it had been deleted. I just hope they don't charge my credit card."
"This site falsely advertises low prices. I placed and order with them and got a confirmation email too. However after a few days I got an email saying that the price that their site had quoted was a mistake and they cannot honor the order. Please beware of this site as they will collect all your personal information including credit card # and then later cancel the order."
"Cancelled my order because they claim they made a price mistake. I think they were just fishing for emails. Unprofessional behavior. Will never buy from them."
"They delivered as promised. No complaints.
Ordered a SanDisk Ultra Firewire card reader. Shipped to me on time. "
"Ordered a notebook battery, but they sent a power supply. I called, they said, we're out of the battery and can't get any from our suppliers, so just return the other and we'll credit. I checked their site the next day, and they'd relisted the battery, saying it was in stock, but for $40 more. Looks to me like they decided their original price was an error, and decided not to honor it. In the meantime, they're saying it'll take two weeks to credit my credit card for the returned item. Their mistake, but somehow they're hanging onto my cash for several weeks. Hmmmm."
"Quick service, great prices, clean Web interface, friendly phone support, free 2-day and cheap overnight (5 bucks)."
"Ordered a Kodak DX7440 from them after Buy.com told me my order with buy.com would not be fulfilled due to an out of stock. They were very pleasant to deal with.
After placing the order w/Chumbo, I learned that buy.com had shipped. I was able to cancel the order with Chumbo w/o any difficulty.
Will purchase from Chumbo on next opportunity.

"First time I've had to buy anything for my computer and photo equipment for a while, and pricegrabber listed chumbo as the cheapest plus free 2 day fedex shipping. Needless to say, it was effortless to order and check the status, and I was very surprised to see they put free fedex shipping on something as small and light as a compact flash memory card plus a new digital camera battery."
"Excellent service. Prompt delivery. Product received as described. Will purchase again from this site. "
"Bought a 5700U video card, come defected with an opened white box, full of dust. Returned for a replacement, come in opened white box again, works but usually crash when play with 3D application, and get very hot easily. Tired to contact them again as they only accept replacement but no refund. Plan to contact manufactuer late. Would never buy anything from them again.
