Hello Nikonners, I am writing this to assert my confidence in B&H mailorder. I have found them reputable, helpful, and much less expensive than local competitor's sale prices. I felt really bad for the fellow who had F5 warranty problems with B&H. I think he has overreacted a bit, human nature, but wrong, and should have tried a more logical way of resolving his dispute. I think B&H was, and is, an upfront company, who admitted their error, and promised to resolve it. I trust B&H because I have a positive history with them. I feel assured that if that situation happened to me, they would take care of it because they are professionals. Most of my friends buy their gear from B&H, with positive results. That says it all for me. TTFN, John ;~) *************************************:~(************************************* John Shepherd Take Only Pictures Contract Printed Circuit Board Designer Only V 978 659-2180 Pictures F 978 685-6587 Hewlett Packard Leave MS 0248 Only 3000 Minuteman Road Footprints Andover Ma 01840 *************************************;~)*************************************
