One of the reasons is always shopped with Adorama is because they ship the day I place the order. With B&H is always 24 hours later, plus the regular 2 business days on the road.
Exact opposite here. B&H has always shipped same day if ordered by 2PM EST for me. Adorama - next day.
I have not found that to be the case in over 10 years w/Adorama. Now please don\'t think I am saying what your experience(s) have/has been but usually if my order is in by 6pm, it goes out later that day and arrives next day here in Maryland. I have never had an issue with packing \"delicate\" items. Memory cards, mice, keyboards, printer ink....yeah they rattle at times but even that, never damaged.
Now also I am a NAPP member and I do get to deal with a dedicated gentleman, Jeff Snyder, who goes out of his way to make sure shippg is UPS and ordered at that time. But I do not use Jeff all of the time but it may pay to look into NAPP membership. It saves me a \"ton\" of money on member discounts(at B&H also) over a year and subscription price alone is usually paid for in a couple of orders.
There is some items B&H does dont stock that Adorama does.
Good luck!
