"Beware of this business!
1. They don't mind to tell you lies about when the products are shipped: They tell you they are on their way but cannot produce a tracking number. After a couple weeks they say the products you bought are in a container coming from China (and still insist they have it in stock!!!???).
2. The description and technical information advertised is not accurate: I bought a Blu Ray home theater system. It was described as a Blu Ray home theater system in the invoice. When it arrived it was a DVD home theater system. They changed the information in the website and claimed that I was confused... but couldn't change the description in the invoice they sent.
3. The products delivered are not the models you buy: I bought a Samsung 55 LCD UA55D6400 and received a UA55D6000. After investigating their "involuntary mistake" they accepted to refund the price difference. 3 months later there is no refund yet.
4. Customer service is non-existent: I wasted hours calling and e-mailing every couple days during the last 3 months to find a resolution and they simply don't answer. When you are lucky to talk with somebody they apologize and assure you that it will be immediately resolved (that I will have the refund in 2 business days).

"I have bought region free dvd player with absolutely no issues. They have a great collection with varied range, they are super fast with shipping delivery , they offer student discounts on certain items no matter where you are and even without the student discounts they offer the cheapest prices I have seen in store and online anywhere. What more could you ask for?!"

"In past few days I am looking for a multisystem TV for my new house. But didn't got that much amount of time to go shopping centers. While browsing for my desired brand having good aspect ratio, surround sound, picture tube, USB functionality, HDMI and other technical features. Samstores is the most secured online eclectronics website that have good range of products for multisystem LCD tvs and that too at surprising price when compared with other stores.

I placed my order instantly and they send it to my place in less than 48 hrs with good delivery package. Got the prefect deal with no hiccups... I trust this store a lot now and looking forward to do more shopping.

Cheers :)

"Wish i had read your reviews prior to ordering this time. My third order from samstores in 6 years, and this one has been most frustrating. A panasonic DVR that will not play off the shelf USA generated media because of wrong region. Well i live here! Been on the phone too a number of personnel at sams', no one has called to resolve this problem, tech, sales, management, no one. Can't even get an RMA to send it back, which i hate to do."

"ordered a BISSELL PROHEAT 2X
bissell-proheat-2x-plus-ex9500e-steam-cleaner-for-220-volts for use here in Melbourne Australia. Gee, they ain't light to carry. It took only roughly seven business days to arrive at my door!! via USPS with tracking. Good job. Although the goods are pricey compared to similar US 110 volt goods, similar product with different brand name(Wertheim) will cost me $400 more to buy here.
after putting them all together and pluging a plug adaptor, everything works perfectly and have no problem after two days of using it.

Cheers

"Bought a Sony CFD S01 CD Radio. Was sent a US model that uses 220 volts. Asked "Benny" for help - he sent me the WRONG plug adapter - it did not work and SMStores own tech support told me that "Benny" sent the wrong plug adapter - that needed a plug adapter with a transformer!!!! So Far received the unit 4/11 And still cannot use it on AC power.

I WILL NEVER BUY FROM SAMSTORES AGAIN.

i WILL ASK MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY TO SUSPEND PAYMENT TO THEM UNTIL I RECEIVE THE CORRECT ADAPTER.

"Quick and Prompt Service of Voltage Transformer and Low Voltage Converter

Last month, I got some electronic and electric products from one of my fast friends as gift. But due to frequent failure and inconsistent supply of electricity, it was necessary for me to buy voltage transformers and low voltage converters so that they can cope with the irregular supply of electricity. After making an in-depth search for electronic products, I went online to visit SamStores and found a wide range of different types of voltage converters. I was amazed with their features and results. With SamStores, I found exact products for which I was seriously looking for. There, I not only got the voltage transformer and voltage converter of my choice but also get one year warranty on them. Surprisingly, I got the same products delivered to my address within the same day and on the best price. I am a happy customer and will like to recommend SamStores to all the people I Know.

"Book My Another Order!

Last year, I was looking for a smart phone that carries all modern feature and style to one of my best friends on his birthday. I contacted various online stores to find a smart phone of my choice from available smart phones, unlock GSM phones and unlock phones. I wasted both my time and energy and got little frustrated as his birthday was approaching very fast. Suddenly, one of my close relatives advised me to visit SamStores web site before sticking to any decision and I rushed to the web site. On reaching the web sites, I was amazed to see a wide range of smart phones from established brands in cheap rates. I selected a Nokia smart phone and asked the store to deliver it to me within two days. Surprisingly, I got the delivery of the smart phone on the same day. I was very pleased for the response I got there from their dedicating staff for their customer services they offered to me. Some time ago, I got a phone call from my friend whom I had gifted the Nokia smart phone, he not only thanked me for the precious gift but also asked me to arrange another smart phone from the same store for his wife. I cant’ believe that SamStores got another customer without visiting a web site or contacting the store personally. I am grateful having such compliments from my friends only because of SamStores.

"God, I wish I had read some of these reviews (not the obvious self-praise of the store posing as purchasers) before making my purchase. First they sent me a damaged model. They did not want to accept the return until I got my credit card company involved. It took over two months to get the replacement, and then when I did get it, it was a used item and a completely different model than what I paid for. And useless to me, because it does not meet the specifications that the original model did. No communication from the company, never sent me an invoice, never sent me a receipt--NOTHING other than stonewalling. I will never do business with them again."
