"I truly enjoyed how my order arrived quickly after I had purchased it. Although I was unaware that I had ordered the wrong size lens because the description page didn't really specify what size the lens was. Needless to say I was unable to return it because of their return policy. The product works fine considering I have the lens adapter even though it doesn't properly fit my camera. "
"The item I wanted to order was listed as in stock on their website, however, received a phone call later that day, stating that the item was on backorder for 3-4 weeks. I stated I wanted to cancel my order, and a woman called back to confirm that she had refunded me.
Received email from paypal that I have been refunded.

"I ordered an close up lens kit for my Canon G12. NWV's price was reasonable and the shipping was included. The lens kit arrived in 2 days and was exactly what I was looking for. I would buy from them again!!"
"I was impressed not just with the knowledge of the person taking the order but their enthusiasm an convictions - which is what sold me in the end.
Very pleased delivery took as long as anticipated - very pleased with the pricing/value. Will see how well the product actually works in practice (generic vido camm batteries). So long as it performs as quoted, I will definitely be using snd recommending your store. Thanks!"
"BAIT AND SWITCH: I actually didn't know that the old brooklyn camera store scam was still going strong in 2010. Here's how it works - you look for a product on, say, google shopping, and notice that one retailer is cheaper than all the others - and has free shipping. So you place your order. A few days later you get a message saying they need to contact you about your order. You ask them just to e-mail you about the problem. They say they can't. So you talk to them on the phone and they say "Well.. your product is back ordered 4 weeks. But, my supervisor said that I can offer you this better product for a little more money." Of course, it's some generic brand product. That's the game - none of the products are actually available at the bargain price they advertise. Beware. "
"The items arrived ina very timely manner and were exactly as described. They were in good condition because they were packaged well. I am sure my niece will be very happy with her gift."
"great.
good price,
fast shipping,
good product."
"Order was placed - easy to look up status and delivered in 3 days Amazing!!"
"No Problems here. Quick shipping (memory beat the camera I ordered from elsewhere). Thanks!"
"Bought a 0.42X FISHEYE LENS W/ MACRO FOR CANON EOS DIGITAL REBEL on Dec. 1, 2010 and received it on Dec. 3, 2010. Incredibly fast shipping. The item is just as advertised. Cheap lens but it does its job. Will do business again with NWV."
"It has been a pleasure to do business with this online store. I was lucky to find exactly what i was looking for and receive it well protected and in a reasonable amount of time."
"This is not the store I wanted to review. Have not done business with them."
"Ahhh, it has been awhile since I dealt with one of these East Coast bait-and-switch organizations. I got smart and check Reseller Ratings whenever I don't recognize the name. So, I did in this case and they had a reasonable rating. But, it still turned out to be a bad experience.
OEM videocamera battery and OEM battery charger ordered from site at very good prices.
Email stating that they "tried to reach me at the number provided" (which is BS because I have a call log for all of my phone numbers).
I call in....typical bait-and-switch story...
Them: "Oh, the battery is on backorder for 6-8 weeks. They're putting in a new overcharging protection cell." (huh? This is a well-established battery.)
Them: "It will be 6-8 weeks for that battery to come in. How about a HIGHER CAPACITY battery for the same price?" (Note that I can get the non-OEM battery on eBay for 1/6th the price they offer.)
Me: "How about the charger? It is in stock?"
Them: "Yes, but I'm talking about the battery."
Me: "No, I prefer to wait for the OEM battery."
Them: "Well, ummm, it is going to be a long time for that battery....there's not going to be a way to complete this order."
Me: "Okay, cancel it. Goodbye."
STAY AWAY!"
"Product was received quickly and is working well. The price was the best I found anywhere when I was searching. I will search New World Video Direct in the future."
" SCAM all the way. I ordered a Canon LC-E8 Battery Charger for $29.99 (most web prices are in the $50 range). I received an email this morning from newworldvideodirect saying there was a problem with my order and I needed to call them. I called and the rep said the Canon charger was on back order and wouldn't be available for four weeks, then tried to get me to accept a replacement charger (I'm sure the same as available elsewhere for ~$10) for the same price. After three times saying "cancel my order", they said they would."
