"BUYER BEWARE!! Horrible Customer Service-False Representations

by ematisoff , Jan 03 '06
Abe’s of Maine is the company that your mother warned you to watch out for when you grow up. Aside from the rudeness and arrogance of the staff at this company that has been frequently described in numerous other reviews of this store, they are also ...

My online shopping experience with Abe's was great. I ordered an Olympus E-10, and they called and confirmed my order. Usually this is the point where you get pressured in to buying other stuff. Abe's does ask if you need anything else, and offers...

Poor Experience, No Delivery

by oneofmany , Dec 08 '05
Complaint I dispute in it's entirety the $1,241.49 charge from Abe's. It's interesting that they placed the charge for the goods even before they sent the product to me. I suspect this behavior is standard operating procedure for them . . . charge ...

I read all the reviews for Abe's, most were positive so I ordered a Fuji S2. What a mistake, Abe's is just like all the other low price come on stores. They make you talk to a salesman even though you order online, all they want to do is sell you over...

I just purchased I Nikon D300 from Abes of Maine. They had the best deal I could find. The problems start with the salesman lying to me about 3 separate issues. 1) He told me he was going to throw in a 4gb sandisk card. He did not give me a Sandisk ...

Spoke with Abe's telephone operator to verify that Samsung HDTV was in stock and verified price. Placed order but couldn't track through website. Waited 24 hours and called back and was told that order might be delayed up to a week. Then I heard from my credit card comapny that I had been charged. Called Abe's again but got no answer on status of order. A day later item arrived (was shipped by ground). Happy that item actually arrived on time from original estimate but was confused that website or phone call couldn't track status.

I received my amplifier quickly and in good condition. What I have an issue with is with the stated specifications. It was rated at 128 watts per channel. When I received the amplifier I found that its actual output power is 40 watts per channel into a 6 ohm load. I would like someone to explain this discrepancy between stated output power and actual output power. The two are not even close. This is extremely misleading to the point of not being true. Before I place another order using this venue, I need to be sure that what I receive is what I ordered.

I was dissapointed that the web site showed the item in-stock when I ordered it. I waited a week and called them to discover that it was not yet available and I would have to wait one more day for shipping. I actually ended up waiting 2 more days. Overall, however, experience was good, the call center was helpful, I really appreciate having someone to talk to for buying on-line.

I would definitely shop with this merchant again. The merchandise was exactly as it was advertised, and they had offers on accessories for the camera that I was not aware of. They offered me a great deal on the accessories after I called to confirm my dhipping address as they requested via e-mail. I was quite pleased with their offer and quality of the merchandise.

Ordering was very easy. Unexpected minor problem was verification of the order from the merchant. I called the merchant back per their email request, but since I was not the purchaser (we used my husband's credit card) they would not return my call and kept calling my husband. This delayed the order, we are still waiting to receive it. Also, the email with the tracking information came from an unfamiliar company and I almost deleted it. Perhaps in the future the merchant could specify whom this information is coming from?

I ordered one day and the package arrived the next day. I paid for 4-6 day delivery. They called me twice about my address, but I think they wanted me to buy accessories.
