Adorama Pays Top Dollar for Used Gear

Amazon

B&H Photo - Video - Pro Audio

Crutchfield

I make fun of retail because I don't shop there.

I haven't paid retail since the 1970s.

Even in the 1970s, I ordered from Adorama and B&H over the phone, instead of paying more locally. Let's face it: local stores don't stock pro gear or the kinds of film in the sizes I wanted anyway, and they didn't back in the 1970s either.

I'm weird: I have faith. I just order the stuff I need sight unseen online, because we always had the ability to return anything if we dislike it. Adorama and B&H have always given everyone a week or two to try it out, and send it back if we don't like it. Today it's 30 days.

It means far more to me to get an hour of stick time at home with a new piece of photo gear than to play with it for hours in a store.

I greatly appreciate all you people who come to my site to research your stuff, and then do the right thing by getting your gear through my links. Using any of my links when you get the stuff you've researched here keeps me on the air. Why do you think I have one of the new Nikon 35mm f/1.8s on order? I have other lenses; I buy this stuff so I can give you my unbiased opinions, good or bad.
