I worked there for 25 years, it's changed a lot in last few years. Be aware if your surroundings
I had family there, I have run 3 NYC marathons in the 1990s and loved the city. While I ran ran the Marathons my wife was able to walk the streets around Central Park until it was time to meet me at the family reunion area. I won't step foot into the city now. That's a shame because I never did get to B&H.

Thanks.
When you visit, as you face the store, look across the street to the left. There is a deli that makes great sandwiches. I usually get pastrami and swiss on rye with spicy mustard, a bag of chips, and a soda. People will make you think any meal in downtown Manhattan will cost you $50 but that just isn't so. There are plenty of places to eat where you will not pay any more than you do back home.

They are also closed on Friday afternoon and all day on Saturday. Great helpful people to work with.

I walked into the store when it opened, just like any other store.
I would never buy from B&H, very expensive for me anyway, buy on e bay or the Hog. Used.

Try walking into their store with a smile on your face and a big wad of cash.

I can see buying used but am skeptical about ebay and possible problems. I would trust some used camera dealers who are mentioned here

They close at 1 this Friday. Always check the times because they change through the year. I have spent a lot of time and money in Manhattan so I know the place. Just never got to B&H but spent a lot with them online.

A year or two ago I saw a video either from their website or something else but it was a detailed tour of the store and it is amazing. It gives you a real good idea what to expect when you go there, but others have already answered the question itās a storefront you just walk in and Well, all I can say is good luck enjoy it and let us know what you found.

Well I second thatā¦
Waitā¦. I go there at least once or twice a month.
When I retire, I plan to work there part-time. Maybe Iāll just volunteer.
