"Worst buying experience ever! Ordered a $2800 Nikon Z7 camera with the FTZ mount. The sales guy calls the next day and starts the upsale. No problem with that, but prices are inflated. He also was very misleading about several things like the battery. He asked if I wanted the 3 Hr or 5 hr battery. I said, "What - it doesn't come with a battery?" Bottom line is that the $2800 package went to roughly $3200 when I received the receipt. I called and inquired and he said that I upgraded to the "Retail Package". You know, that's the one with the strap, eye piece and instruction manual. What a joke. I then wanted to cancel, but I was told that the order had shipped. Really, in 1 hr UPS picked up the package before 1PM EST? UPS did not pick up until after 7PM. The UPS label wasn't created until 6:07 PM. They will lie to you and change the price. Is that Bait and Switch? I sent two emails stating that I wanted to cancel the order. They shipped anyway. I refused the package and it went back to the shipper. Now they want to charge me a several hundred dollar restocking fee. God thing I used AMEX and I have my emails.

"I searched many places for my lens...Abes has best price and accepted finance Thanks Abes!!!!!"
"Yippee! I usually buy items from Amazon, but the price I'm getting with Abe's is about 25% less!"
"Awesome experience thanks!"
"They almost always have the best prices around the tri-state area."
"I have been looking for Thai camera since it was discontinued. So glad I was able to find it. "
"Found a great 4th of July deal"
"I have no idea how this place is in business. This is not the Abe's of Maine of old. They filed for bankrupt protection back in 2012. I ordered a camera body and lens from them. They tried an upsell call and tried to make me order a "U.S." version. After I called the sales rep out there is no such as an international version, he tells me there is no warranty on the body. That's the difference. I told him to tell me where on the site does it state that there is no warranty. I told him to cancel my order and he said he will put it on hold and hung up. I called the office to cancel my order which they attempted to upsell me again with an international vs US version. I told them I'm not an uninformed customer and I just want to cancel the order. She told me she will transfer me to the right department which after 10 mins of wait, lo and behold it hung up on me. Avoid this company like the plague."
"Quick service, good pricing and I’m hopeful for a long partnership!"
