"i purchased a canon 40d set from this company and i was disappointed about there service..I had to pay 400 dollar taxes ,altough they promised me to ship low rates..Also in there promotion they said you could have a free telephoto lens and a memorycard of 1 gb...nothing of this was included!
When a asked them why this happened,they said me i had to ask it and they would send it me with the next shipment..
The camera and lenses are great ,but the tripod and flash is rubbish"

"OK, first the good. I purchased Nikon D40x package with two lenses and assorted goodies. It was shipped promptly and complete. Michael was professional and polite. The camera and lenses were exactly as I was looking for at a great price. Now the bad. Did not like having to call in to complete order only to have to go through a bunch of hogwash about warranty repairs and extended warranty. The goodies I mentioned were all pretty cheap stuff, especially the flash which doesn't fit the shoe and has sync problems. The table tripod does not hold the camera with lens attached and the hard case I wouldn't keep my socks in. All in all I got what I got and the camera itself with the two lenses was pretty much what I could have bought locally. The goodies where all basically free. If you look at it that way, I guess I made a good deal Howie."

"I recieved my order very quickly. I talked to two people at this store and they were both very polite. Micheal was very pleasant and helpful. I love this lens and the fliters I bought. I will diffently shop here again and have put them in my favorite sellers on Ebay."

"This was overall a very smooth transaction, I received everything that was ordered at a fair price. The only thing I DIDN'T like about the transaction was the promise of upgraded shipping if I went ahead and gave a 5 star rating on EBay. I did give a 5 star rating, sent a message stating so and STILL received ground shipping. Guess that is one way to keep your EBay ratings up. "

"I ordered the Canon Rebel xti and received it within 1 week. The price was great, much cheaper than other places. The only thing I didn't like was having to call to confirm the order, after purchased through ebay. They were very easy to deal with on the phone though, with no real pressure to buy other stuff."

"Ordered a Nikon D40 package with an 18-135mm lens. Camera arrived in just over a week in perfect condition. The price was great. The only complaint I have is that the extras packaged with it were low quality. The flash barely fit onto the hotshoe and didn't sync well with the camera, the table top tripod was too small to support the camera correctly, and the aluminum hard case felt cheaply constructed. The regular tripod and soft case were both great though and with the great price they offered, it would have been worth it with none of the extras."

"Danny was a great guy, I used to manage an electronics store and was familiar with his sales spiel.
I really didn't care much about the add-ons that they gave me since they were of the low-end kind. Ex: complimentary lenses, tripod,generic memory card.etc. It also seems like the camera box was opened to take out the original lens that came with it.Regardless, I am giving them a high rating because I know for the price that I was getting my camera, it was still a lot cheaper than what I would have gotten from a brick and mortar store or even from B&H or Adorama and did I mention the great shipping and customer service that comes with them.

Thanks again Danny and Shopsunshine,"

"Camera kit was very nice. John was very pleasant to deal with and very helpful. Will probably do business again."

"Great company to work with! Micheal was so helpful, answering my many questions and recommending the product that would best suit my needs. My Canon Rebel XTi arrived in a timely manner, and I absolutely love it! The package I selected supplied everything I will need to take spectacular pictures of my family. Thanks for a great buying experience! I would purchase from this company again!"

"I bought a Canon EOS Digital Rebal XTi off of EBAY.John made this sale very smooth and was very helpful. Shipping was quick and all items were recieved in great shape."

"Great product with great price and great service. I am recommending you guys to all my friends. "

"I purchased the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 and the extended Kit. There was only 3 or 4 in stock. It was mailed right out to me overnight. It was a great price. As the camera was going for around $400 in most stores and I got both kits and 3 year extended warranty and shipping for $560. The camera takes wonderful pictures. They sold me exactly what I wanted for such a wonderful price. I had to return the filters that came with my camera (wrong size) I had a fast response and received the filters right back. Excellent service. "

"Bottom line: Since this retailer oftentimes offers electronics for sale on eBay that they don't actually have in stock, you never know what you are going to get with these guys. Don't get me wrong, they offer good pricing on some items, but Sunshine Electronics has found loopholes in the eBay system and they exploit them LIBERALLY- all while holding your money. Via eBay, I purchased a Panasonic HD camera on January 18th, and this seller was unable to ship because the item was on "national backorder." Never mind that the auction listed "4 available" of the camcorder I bought. I paid the same day I won the auction via PayPal after going through the hassle of calling to "confirm my order," which is acutally just a chance for them to upsell you their ridiculous $30 shipping insurance and overpriced accessories. They used the classic "you're only getting a starter battery that lasts 20 minutes story on me." How's that possible in an as advertised unopened box from the factory?

1 week after I paid with PayPal I contacted them to inquire about my camcorder and they said "it's on backorder, we're not sure when you'll get it, maybe 1-2 weeks. Call us to check on it." Get this, their own off-eBay website, Shopsunshine.com listed my camcorder as "IN STOCK" the entire time they were telling me otherwise. We'll fix that right away, I was told. Never happened.

Now I have 4-5 emails documenting my conversations with these guys- and they are totally scamming the eBay feedback system as you will see below. After two weeks of waiting and calling and being told "you'll get your camera, we promise" I found another camcorder at Vanns.com and purchased it (better price than Sunshine, too), and called Sunshine to request a refund to my PayPal account since they were unable to ship. I received the refund 3 days later, which is kind of slow. Before they would cancel, a "manager" got on the phone and made me leave positive feedback for them ("that's just how we do it," I was told.) Look at all of the eBay feedback left that says "________ (name of manager) helped me out." Those are all cancelled orders like mine. I wondered why they had such positive feedback doing business this way- which is selling things they don't really have in stock. Now I know how. Customers who've had bad experiences are coerced into leaving positive feedback to get their refunds. What a sham. This is the kind of transaction that led eBay to discontinue the ability of sellers to leave feedback for buyers starting later this February. You can read up on this change at eBay forums. I know alot of people hate the idea, but it was Sunshine Electronics and others like them that largely led to this change.

The following email from them shows you how they are scamming Ebay- giving Non-Payment strikes to customers who paid the same day- all because they are selling things they don't have in stock and want to get around the final value fees. And they're a 19,000 plus feedback company on Ebay, so they're doing it ALOT. Now I know that I can get the Non-Paid strike mutually removed, but I only cancelled the order after two weeks of them having my $600 BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T DELIVER! It's crazy that they are able to cheat the system this way and I am very disappointed that they have been apparently able to do so without any repercussions from EBAY.

"The Camera arrived promptly and is great. Sadly the adapter required to make the extra filters and lenses work on the camera did not arrive. 3 weeks of phoning only gave me promises of "we'll get right on it". Everyone says the right things but nothing is happening. They have my money I have frustration !!! I am NOT happy."

"THE AUCTION PRICE WAS $534. THEY TACKED ON EXTRAS (5% PAYPAL FEE). THE TOTAL BECAME $610. THIS IS A FALSELY LOW PRICE. "
