Item: RRS 20D L-bracket
Comments: Aaron packaged the bracket very professionally and shipped promptly (Priority mail from CA to NC in 2 days!). The bracket was mint as described. Nothing but praise for Aaron!
Everything arrived exactly as he stated, great condition and packed well. Would easily buy from him again.
Right back at you Doug. Doug offered to by my bag and one or the other of us had preffered a usps money order. Doug told me he sent it and it arrived two days later. Doug was always prompt in his communication and best of all he has shown his concern for the community by letting everyone else know how the deal went. Can't ask for more than that.
Seller: Cinstance
Item: Canon 70-200 IS
Comments: Cinstance was replied very promptly and was very helpful with making sure the lens got here on time for me. The lens itself was in excellent condition too.
I tried to post this earlier and couldn't find the post. Anyway, yuhhsupan was wonderful to deal with as a buyer. He responded to all emails promptly, payment was received exactly when expected, and as the transaction proceeded he was quite flexible and accomodating. He couldn't have helped the transaction proceed smoother....
Neutral feedback for rmbill or Bill Taylor or William Taylor of Ohio.
Purchased one of the Canon 1D's he brokered for a camera store near him. Originally sent me incorrect email address for Paypal, resulting in my having to send a second payment (in excess of $1000) and then wait four business days for Paypal to put the first payment back in my account.
Camera was sent on time and as described, but without battery charger. Bill told me charger would be sent out "right away." That was over 2 weeks ago (May 6th). No contact (despite repeated emails and phone calls, in which I even offered to pay for overnight shipping) for over a week, then received a PM here on FM saying charger would be sent out "today" (May 17th). As of today (May 23rd), the charger is still not here, and once again my emails are going unanswered.
The camera is essentially useless without a charger, unless I can find someone willing to charge my batteries for me on a weekly basis (difficult at best). A new charger is listed by B&H at ~$320, which is more than a quarter of the cost of the camera itself.
I am extremely disappointed by Bill's actions, as up until this point he had been very helpful and accomodating in our transactions. I would warn all prospective buyers and sellers to think twice before dealing with him.
Purchased a camera bag from Byron (bka20d) and it was shipped promptly and packaged very well. He followed up after the sale to make sure I got it and all was well. I'll happily buy from Byron again in the future!
Purchased a Canon 24-70L from William. Prompt emails and fast shipping! The lens was received as described. No problems with the lens and I would happily conduct business in the future with this seller.
i sold a 1Ds to patrick, username "gooch" here on fm. payment was fast, and in the form of official bank funds (always nice!). he's a great communicator and a pleasure to deal with. highly recommended!
