I would not include B&H Photo in the same class with BuyDig and other
"low-margin mail-order companies".
B&H Photo is a huge operation, with a massive brick and mortar store
and several enormous warehouses, probably a couple billion dollars in
business annually. I've been doing business with them for 20+ years,
to the tune of several to tens of thousands of dollars a year, and
there has *never* been a case when a problem of any kind was not
professionally and effectively handled, in a timely manner.
They are the premier professional photographic retailer in the United
States, and possibly the world. They may be gruff on the phone but,
hey, I grew up in New York too.
