To B&H:

Dear Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me and the matter has been resolved
Sincerely,

The communication regarding the backorder status has been disingenuousStarting with uncertainty over when stock would arrive, to a sudden cancellation because the product was "discontinued", and finally informing that the manufacturer doesn't want to the honor the discount, so order won't be honored when the product returned to stock in just over a month.Cancellation of orders is to my knowledge, I was not aware of another retailer (*** ***)However, on these same photography forums, you will find that many users are reporting that their orders are being shipped from retailers like *** and *** with the discounted price honored.And unlike *** ***, my credit card was billed for the full amount since I placed the order back in November. I find it skeptical that the manufacturer would wait months before deciding to no longer honor the discount on backordersThey would know how many they had to fulfill, and if I was past a "cutoff point", my order should have been cancelled much earlier

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ***, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved becauseFactually incorrect responseWe contacted *** originally, sent them the computer to be repaired, they lost it and took weeks to return it to meThen they sent a tech support person out who could not fix it and in fact damaged the laptop further at this point we requested whether there would be a tech support person available in Europe as we were headed there for weeksWe never requested that they send a tech support person and these kind of lies are typical of the level of customer service we have receivedI have simply requested that B&H deal with *** to fix our issueA replacement computer would be the best and easiest way to solve this problemAfter months of *** and B&H failing to fix the problem I suggested that they might want to upgrade us with a software package for the 100+ hours I have spent on emails and phone calls trying to just get this issue fixedHow is it unreasonable to want the product that I purchased from B&H to not be faulty? I will not return the laptop to *** again because they lost it last time and I can not go without a computer for another potential weeksI will request again that B&H call *** and organize a service technician to come out and fix my laptop, if it is not fixable then they must replace itYes I understand that B&H has a day return policy but it is basic customer service to assist me with getting a replacement or getting my computer fixedI note that neither *** or B&H has stated that my laptop is not faultyJust that it is to difficult to fix? Is it so unreasonable to want my laptop to work properlyIs it unreasonable to request the retailer to assist me with getting the problem fixed*** are impossible to deal with and have failed to fix the laptop on occasionsIt would just make sense to replace it with a working laptop and I expect B&H to go to bat for us on this one as their customerAs a side note every time I have contacted B&H or *** on this matter I have had to deal with a different customer service rep who has no idea of the history of this problemIt is very easy for a retailer to hide behind a warranty policy and blame *** but they stock their products and should stand behind their serviceBesides this I have contacted *** recently again and they just closed my case which would mean me spending another hours filing a claimSincerely, one very frustrated and not unreasonable customer

In reviewing the customer's previous purchase history I found indications in the customer service log for previous orders indicating that our return policy had been discussed with himIt seem fitting now to note that our return policy at *** says, "Defective items may be repaired, exchanged or refunded at our discretion for the same model or manufacturer's equivalent model."In our customer service notes for this transaction it says we received email from the customer on Aug **, and replied the same day asking for additional information and clarification of the customer's problemWe never received any reply.-- Henry P***B&H Photo-Video

As I stated in my complaint I do not believe that issues between your company and *** are my problem, they are yoursI made a purchase and received an order confirmation from B&H, not ***Your company sold me a product then failed to deliver and are not making it right offering a fair deal as compensationOffering a $discount on a non-sale priced item is hardly equivalent to the purchase I had made, it is offering me a much smaller or much lower quality productMANY OTHER RETAILERS offered this SAME model at the SAME price point as you ($397) on Black Friday weekend, but because I chose to order from your company I am not getting the TVYour company caused me not to purchase from another retailer and is now leaving me empty handed because you overreachedI am aware the TV was heavily discounted, that is the point of making a purchase during that time period, to receive a deep discount, something you have now denied meThis is not good customer service.

Regarding the invoicing, why would you have to charge for an item that I did not order, only to try a refund later ? I did call your business BEFORE the shipping, did I not ? Customers just want to be treated fairlyIf consider that a threat, it is up to youYou just lost a customer that has been doing business with you for yearsSo far as I remember, this is the first time I had to make a complaint about B&HI had always received a good service from your store in the past, but I do expect some honesty from my suppliersRegarding the computer, please do not worryWith the devaluation of the canadian dollar, there are plenty of sellers here that are as competitive as those in the States

As per your attachment with the image, that is not the page I ordered from, as I had mentioned if anyone cares to listen/lookNowhere on this screenshot does the information about being "APS-C" appear here, nowhere! Terrible business practices for $I have read other reviews elsewhere and I wish I had delved a bit deeper before purchasing from hereI have better prices and better service in some other places but I thought I would give this business a chanceNever againI have attached the screenshot showing the clear lack of information
