Great camera prices but terrible accessories prices, pushy salespersons and miserable return policy

by ecotectoo , Dec 12 '05
I'm quite dislpeased with my experience with Preferred Photo. I had ordered the Fuji F11 camera and was pressured into taking a "better battery" as the one it came with (they said) held so little energy - so I ordered a "great" extra battery for the ...

Nail biting delivery experience and feeling of being scammed

by ndjbp3 , Mar 27 '08
I recently purchased a Nikon D80 complete with two lenses on this site for an awesome deal: $739.99. I got a phone call and message (not e-mail) saying that I should call back to confirm the order. When I did, I had the same fishy "20 minute battery" ...

FSCK I GOT FSCKING ROLLED- oh wait

by dlordtemplar , Aug 01 '08
I just ordered from the site, and it was a noticeable $12 difference from the Newegg in the fujifilm s700 I was buying. This is the first time I had ordered from a site other than Dell (only for a monitor, don't flame me) or Newegg, but everything looked ...

Simply a deceptive, dishonest company

by intex4me , Sep 21 '06
If you like being ripped off, then buy a camera from Preferred Photo. On certain models of camera at least it appears the operation they run is the total scam and you end up paying up to several hundred dollars more than you originally authorised on your ...

SHADDY COMPANY...would not buy from again

by jenp123 , Aug 10 '06

Don't be fooled by their "low" prices

by moore2772 , Jun 09 '06
A bad experience. Despite their lowball prices, they will not ship to you until you get a call pressuring you to purchase overpriced accessories. The batteries and charger they sent me were grossly misrepresented ("regularly $99, for you only $59,) This ...

Prefered Photo is probably a scam

by creyerson , Jul 11 '06
My experience with Preferred is typical of everyone else's. They had a noticably lower price than every one else (a Fiji V10 dig camera), but I checked their prices on xD picture cards, $250 for 512MB, that's more than the cost of the card. That's ...

An absolute horrific nightmare in purchasing.

by chancedakota , Jul 01 '06
This company could care less about you or your satisfaction. I found them on a shopping site and they were listed with five stars. I only realized later that the website was probably a scam since there is no place where you can actually rate the ...

Absolutely awful. Dishonest! Avoid at all costs!

by b170 , Feb 05 '08
I was trying to buy a 50" Sony HDTV. Preferred photo was offering it for about $400 cheaper than anybody else I could find. Since the model I wanted has been discontinued, I ordered it as soon as I saw it--without researching the seller. Big mistake. ...

Worst customer service I have ever encountered.

by rome425 , Mar 26 '08
Preferredphoto.com was, by far, the worst experience ever. It all started when I decided to buy a Canon SD1100 (bohemian brown). First I found a very good deal on 86photovideo.com, but they didn't have one the color that I wanted. Than, I decided to ...
