"I have purchased several items from 47st Photo and as usual this item was shipped promptly and arrived as advertised. I have not had the occasion to reach them for assistance but I have never needed to. Very prompt, very reliable. I look forward to dealing with them again."

"I was more than just pleased with my purchase of a 420mm-800mm telephot lens w/ 2x multiplier--I have been taking shots I only dreamed of previously, and all at a cost that just cannot be beaten. 47th St Photo is the reliably the best source for photo equipment on all of eBay! I am 110% satisfied!"

"I'am sorry but my English is very bad. I was fully satisfied with the transaction. The contact is sympathetic nerve, the very fast sending and the reception too. The prices are attractive and the serious trade.

"Fanstastic seller with lightning fast shipping. No wonder I'm a repeat cusomer and will be again. Thank you so much to the courteous people from 47th Street photo for making my purchases a pleasure."

"That my Ebay Item #. Can't find the conformation. I wanted to take the time to write a review for these guys because they were awesome to deal with. I recieved communication from them immediatly after the auction. The shipping was super fast. I called to make sure it would arrive by a certain date and they said it would. It arrived 2 days before the date I really needed it. After I recieved my order, the tripod was broken. I called them and I had a new one 2 days later. This is what I call customer service at its best. You don't see that all that often on Ebay. Kudos to 47th St. Photo, I'll be doing business there again.

"I couldn't find my invoice number the item number that I bought was: Item number: 270224164969.
It took me a few minutes to figure out how to get the lens on the camera as well as the teleconverter. I just LOVE this lens! The customer service that I received was by far top notch. I received the incorrect adapter for my camera (MY fault) you guys send me out a replacement very quickly.
I now have your store saved in my "Favourite Stores" list on Ebay.

Thanks again for the GREAT service, it was very much appreciated.

Have a terrific weekend.

"47th St. Photo has a great selection and good service, I've purchased from them multiple times and have been satisfied with each purchase."

"I received great service from 47th Street Photo - the item I ordered on the 10th was in my hands on the 12th with plenty of email communication in between. I was also quite pleasantly surprised with the product - an Opteka Slide Copier - It works great! This slide copier is exactly what I was looking for and at a great price. I will not hesitate to deal with them again."

"Very nice lens; shipped next day. Arrived June 4."

"I ordered a macro lens kit and adaptor for my Canon PowerShot A630. The notification of payment and delivery was great, timely and informative.
When the order arrived, the parts didn't fit together - Customer service at 47th St was patient and helpful, and we determined that the lens kit had been improperly labeled by the manufacturer, so I had received a 52mm adapter and 55mm lenses(in a 52mm lens box). Customer service found a resolution that would be quick and easy, and implemented it immediately. I received an adapter within 2 days, and all works beautifully.
I am *very* pleased with the product, delivery and customer service - thank you!"

"Ordered the following through Amazon: Hoya 55mm Filter Kit (UV & Circular Polarizing) + Opteka Pro Cleaning Kit + Tabletop Tripod. Cost was $39.95 plus $7.95 S&H.

Everything arrived in order and pre-notification that it had been shipped was effective."

"I work nights, plus I'm in California. I ordered a Sigma 28-70mm lens 11pm my time, expecting at least a day or two for processing before it being shipped. Imagine my surprise when UPS delivered the lens today! I am quite happy with the service 47th gave me, and will purchase from them again in the future."

"Ordered Sigma 75-300mm telephoto lens on 12/28/07. This item shows in stock their website. Received ship confirmation on 1/2/08 and credit card was charged. Come to find out, the package was never shipped. The lens is said to be on backorder with Sigma. Requested the order be canceled 1/22/08. 47st photo has done nothing. They have my money and I have nothing. Would never shop with them again. About to file a complaint with state of NY for Consumer Fraud."

"Followed an ad placed on a google search when I was looking for a monopod. Was somewhat skeptical, but the monopod was $15 and had free shipping, so if there was a loss it wasn't much.

Order was shipped two days after order was placed, and I was given a UPS tracking number. With the free ground shipping it left and got to my location six days later. No complaints since it was free.

Monopod was great for the value.

Checkout was easy, never had to deal with any customer service so I am unsure of that, but the experience was great and painless."

"BAD NEWS STAY AWAY

The wrong product was shipped. They shipped me; Opteka OPT-HC15 it's totally the wrong product. The Product i order was a Vangard product PRO EXTREME HARD CASE FOR NIKON D70 D70S D100 D200 D300 D1X D1H D2X D2H D40 D80 D50 dimensions: 18 1/8" x 12 3/4" x 6 3/4" Inside dimensions: 17 1/3" x 12" x 6 1/3" 1 Year USA limited warranty
It's the old bate and switch, I heard about this, but i took a chance and got burned.

STAY AWAY FROM 47th STREET PHOTO

I am surprised that Amazon would represent such a shady company. Live and learn.

Update: 01-16-08 Sent an email to Customer service, got a response the very next day to call them. I called and talked to a representative and explained the mixup, they said it was a miss print on the web and said that they stopped carrying Vangard products. Then asked me, what do you wanted to do? I said a total refund. They said they would send me a bill label so i can send it back, which they did. Now let's see if they give me a total refund or charge me a restocking fee. I will keep you posted. So far Customer Service treated me well.

Update 01-26-08
Total Refund never happen, Of coarse they rip me off on the shipping charge according to the refund amount stated on the email I received from 47th Photo. Still not credited to my CC account I guess I got off lucky after reading other reviews. Very Bad company stay away. "
