Has anyone ever actually received their order from Taaffe Photo I ordered three Canon lenses over three weeks ago. Verified they were in stock at the time of the order, but now they say they're all backordered. Prices were low (they ranged from 3% to 8% lower than B&H), but not low enough to seem unreasonable for a seller without an expensive storefront. No charges on the credit card yet, and they assure me they will ship when they arrive. I'm not in a real hurry, but don't want this to on forever, either.

They don't have a phenomenal rating on ResellerRatings.

Have you tried to call them?

They are affiliated with Hot Buys Electronics , which can't be good.
