"VERY, VERY BAD experience with Free Trade Photo (A.K.A. FTP Video - http://www.ftpvideo.net).
I am literally out hundreds of dollars... not to mention all the time, aggravating phone calls and gas used in attempting to get things right. To no avail, I just plain lost :(.
As you can see, normally I don't write bad reviews. In fact, I much prefer to write positive ones. However, I work very hard for my money and my loss of all that hard earned money has made me very sad.
I feel that the business practices of Free Trade Photo are not in the best interest of the trusting consumer.
My recommendation for photo, video, audio, etc. equipment is B&H Photo-Video-Pro Audio (http://www.bhphotovideo.com) reviewed right here at ResellerRatings.com, rated at a consistent 9.5 and above: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/B_H_Photo_Video_Pro_Audio
Thank you to Coleen of Bank of America's credit card dispute resolution department for at least giving me back some of my money. Although, it was unfortunately at Bank of America's expense (and therefore, all of our expense), due to the fact that the item was purchased using their credit card. Bank of America just gave me some credit back because of my good customer history with them and when they saw what Free Trade Photo (A.K.A. FTP Video - http://www.ftpvideo.net) did to me.
My opinion of Free Trade Photo is so negative, that I can't even put it into words that are being read on a public forum."
